Russia has now also charged damage to a submarine cable. The damage to the Baltika -Telecommunication cable was caused by external action some time ago, said the Russian state -owned company Rostelekom in Moscow.
“Repair work is underway”, a message from the company was cited by the Ria Nowosti news agency. The cable damage has no effect on customers.
The Finnish Coast Guard announced on the Short Message Service X that the repair of a torn unters cable by a Russian ship in the exclusive economic zone of Finland monitored.
Finns knew about the damage since the end of December
The work would take about a week, reported the Finnish radio broadcaster, referring to the Ministry of Economic Affairs in Helsinki. The damage to the cable has been known to the responsible ministry since 27 December.
The connection runs between St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad. In the Finnish information there was still a second, parallel Russian cable, which was also damaged.
According to Yle, the Russian telecom cable Baltika crosses the cables between Finland and Estonia that was damaged at Christmas on December 25. The tanker “Eagle S”, which is counted for the Russian shadow fleet, is suspected, which is still set to the instructions of the authorities off the coast of Finland. Due to various cable damage, behind which the Russian sabotage is suspected, NATO seas have strengthened their navy patterns.
