Cinia has reported damage to its C-Lion1 fibre-optic cable, linking Finland and Germany, prompting investigations by Swedish and Finnish police for potential sabotage. This incident is part of a series of disruptions in the Baltic Sea, raising concerns in light of the heightened security situation after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. No suspects have been identified yet, although previous damage has sparked a response from NATO and highlighted vulnerabilities in the region's infrastructure. The C-Lion1 cable plays a crucial role in connecting Nordic countries with Central European networks.
We take all reports of possible damage to infrastructure in the Baltic Sea very seriously, Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson wrote on X.
The Baltic Sea region is on alert and the NATO military alliance has boosted its presence there after a series of outages since Russia invaded Ukraine.
