There is a possibility that Russia is preparing sabotage against the underwater infrastructure of Northern Europe.

Russian reconnaissance ships are preparing sabotage against offshore wind farms, gas pipelines and power cables in Denmark and the Nordic countries. This was reported by the publication DR referring to a joint investigation by journalists from Denmark, Norway, Finland and Sweden.

Analysts are investigating information about radio traffic and the location of Russian ships around the Nordic countries. There are a large number of Russian ships in the waters around Denmark, Norway, Finland and Sweden. According to official reports of the Russian Federation, they are studying the bottom of the sea. However, experts believe that with the help of special equipment, the Russians are looking for information about the infrastructure of these countries.

Such data will help the Russian Federation prepare sabotage on wind farms, gas pipelines and communication cables. According to experts, Russia may also sabotage the distribution of electricity in Northwestern Europe.

Investigative journalists have found that Russian “ghost ships” are floating in the waters of Northern Europe. These vessels turn off their radars (AIS transmitters) and do not transmit position information. One of these ships is Admiral Vladimirsky.

The ship is understood to have inspected the perimeter of seven wind farms off the coast of Britain and the Netherlands. When approaching the stations, the ship slowed down considerably. Journalists sailed with him in a boat. From the deck they were “met” by a man in a balaclava with a weapon that looked like a military rifle.

Admiral Vladimirsky also seen off the coast of Scotland, about 30 nautical miles east of Lossiemouth, where the Royal Air Force’s fleet of maritime patrol aircraft is based.

A Danish intelligence officer in a comment to journalists confirmed that Russia may be preparing sabotage in the event of a conflict with the West. Norwegian intelligence emphasized that this project is important for the Russians, it is controlled from Moscow.

Recall that the Danish Energy Agency, a few weeks before the explosions in the Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines, received 16 reports of drone and ship activity at sea or underwater energy facilities. Swedish prosecutors believe a government-sponsored group was behind the gas pipeline explosion.
