Summary

The undersea Estlink-2 power cable linking Finland and Estonia experienced an outage on Wednesday, prompting an investigation, Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo announced.

Authorities stated the disruption will not affect electricity supplies in Finland or Estonia.

Concerns are heightened due to recent incidents involving undersea infrastructure in the Baltic, including severed data cables in November and the 2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines.

The cause of the Estlink-2 outage remains unclear.

      It was either the US or Ukraine, depending on if you believe Seymour Hersh.

      That single act destroyed the economy of Germany and is probably the single act most responsible for AfD doing so well now.

      It would also have been the first act of war by a NATO member against another NATO member, if you believe Seymour Hersh.

      It was far far more destructive then cutting an internet line, and yet everyone here seems to forgotten it because it is a problematic thing to be concerned by for thee people that want war with a nuclear power.

        What are you even talking about. You sounds like a schizophrenic who forgot to take their medication, answering questions that exists only in your own mind.

          And you sound like a racist.

          The person you were responding to correctly pointed out the destruction of the Nordstream was done by …well, not Russia. And the destruction of that underwater pipe ( very much like an underwater cable) was used as a propaganda point by trying to blame Russia for its destruction.

          Not a hard analogy to understand.

          Huh, racist and poor reading comprehension. I guess it should be obvious those two would go together.
