Per the article

“That was a sophisticated operation, carried out in stealth in the shallow depth of the Danish straits. That would in principle rule out submarines (ships entering the Baltic are limited to a draught of 15 meters). As for prospective “invisible” vessels, these could only loiter around with permission from Copenhagen – as the waters around Borholm are crammed with sensors, reflecting fear of incursion by Russian submarines.”

Not true as Russia can easily send subs from their ports.

You need to excerpt the whole paragraph, un-freakin’-believable:

“As for prospective “invisible” vessels, these could only loiter around with permission from Copenhagen – as the waters around Borholm are crammed with sensors, reflecting fear of incursion by Russian submarines.”

I think he was referring to the surveillance. “... waters around Borholm are crammed with sensors, reflecting fear of incursion by Russian submarines.”

There was the USN drill in the area in June. Before the incident there was a USN ship and launched a helicopter which flew exactly where the explosions took place.
