ESTLINK2, not ESTLINK1, was ripped by EAGLE S. My bad, sorry.

Estonian navy started patrolling the remaining EE-FI power interconnector Estlink1 (350MW).

The destroyed Estlink2 was 658MW. Baltic states plan to disconnect from Russian grid Feb 2025.

One hopes NATO & Western countries know, Russia will likely start damaging underwater cables elsewhere. NATO said it will enhance its military presence in the Baltic Sea, & Estonia has sent a patrol ship to protect its Estlink1 undersea power cable. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Sat @ 05:00UTC the Baltic states will start their disconnect from the Russian grid and synchronize with the European dito.

Nordbalt and Estlink1 carries 50.7% of their flows right now. The former overrun twice by anchor recently, the latter 30 min away (FI Navy stopped it). Estlink2 taken out, 0%.

658 MW Estlink2-kaapelin ongelma rajoittaa Suomen ja Viron välisen siirtokapasiteetin Estlink1:n 358 megawattiin.

Niinpä nyt sähkön hinta Virossa ja muualla Baltiassa on 13-kertainen Suomeen verrattuna.

Doing some shady maneuvers. First lowered the speed to zero above the estlink2 cable, now performing pirouettes above estlink1

L'Estonia, in accordo con la Svezia, ha mandato una nave militare a pattugliare il tratto di mare sopra il cavo sottomarino EstLink1.
Il mezzo sarà in contatto continuo con le autorità.

A questo punto c'è rimasto qualcuno che crede che Nordstream 1 sia stato sabotato dagli ucraini e non dai russi ?

Nordbalt was run over twice, Estlink2 was severed and Estlink1 was minutes away. The months running up to the decoupling. Make of it what you want.

Risto Lohi of the National Bureau of Investigation, who heads up the investigation into the sabotaged cables, said other cables in the area – including the Estlink1 and the BalticConnector gas pipe between Finland and Estonia – were under threat.

Maybe it tries to cut the second?!
