Swedish seismic center recorded two explosions in the area of gas leaks from the Nord Stream gas pipeline
Destruction on three strings of the Nord Stream gas pipelines clearly indicate a possible sabotage, according to the Seismological Center of Sweden, explosions were recorded in the area where the pipelines were located. It is reported by the Swedish TV channel SVT.
According to the Swedes, two explosions were recorded in the area of the gas leak from the Nord Stream pipeline, this is indicated by the data of the seismological center. At the moment, the diameter of the circle formed on the surface of the water from the gas rising from the damaged pipes is several hundred meters.
- said the representative of the Swedish seismic center Bjorn Lund.
According to German media, there are huge holes in the leaks, which only confirms the version of sabotage on the gas pipeline. The Swedes also report big breaks. The Danes, who sent the frigate Absalon and the environmental vessel Gunnar Thorson to the site of the leak, are also inclined to believe that this was a forceful act, and not a technical accident.
According to the operator company Nord Stream AG, the destruction of three lines of the gas pipeline at once is unprecedented, and an investigation has been launched. No one is even talking about the timing of the restoration of gas pipelines, the damage has yet to be determined. The Kremlin is aware of what happened, according to the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov, the situation requires urgent investigation.
