Recent disruptions to undersea internet cables in the Baltic Sea have raised concerns about possible Russian interference with global undersea infrastructure. The incidents involved a communications cable between Lithuania and Sweden, as well as a cable linking Finland and Germany.
The disruption of the Lithuania-Sweden cable was confirmed by Telia Lithuania, attributing the issue to physical damage to the fiber optic cable. Similarly, the Finnish-German cable was affected, with Cinia, the Finnish company operating the link, investigating the cause of the fault.
