A Russian “shadow navy” ship has been spotted circling a natural gas pipeline from Norway to Poland. Tells about it Polish public radio TVP citing foreign ministry sources.
During the last year, the ships of the “shadow fleet” are suspected to have cut communication and electricity cables running at the bottom of the Baltic Sea. NATO is starting a special operation to protect cables and monitor the activities of vessels connected to Russia.
“Shadow fleet” refers to ships from third countries that transport goods or oil subject to sanctions from Russia. Finland has stopped the tanker named Eagle S, which is suspected of cutting the cables.
