Nord Stream attack
New trail leads to Russia Russian military ships headed for Nord Stream pipelines with gripper-arm submarines
A week before the explosions on September 19, the Russian Baltic Fleet began extensive maneuvers that could be used as camouflage for real missions. They were officially joined by combat swimmers from the 313th Spetsnaz special forces unit from the Baltiysk base in Kaliningrad. They are elite soldiers, trained for underwater demolition and sabotage operations. In the following days, the suspicious ships were apparently found in the area of the crime scenes.
Their equipment was explosive: they had a mini submarine and cranes for lifting heavy loads. A frigate, a corvette and a smaller spy ship are said to have been there and would have been suitable to secure the operation militarily. Using position databases and satellite images, t-online was able to partially understand the movements of the specific ships.
