New evidence supports theories that Russia is sabotaging critical digital infrastructure

**_Summary_**

Finnish investigators found an anchor drag mark on the seabed near a damaged power cable, suggesting sabotage by a Russia-linked vessel.

The anchor drag trailed across the seabed for nearly 100 kilometers.

The discovery heightens concerns about Russia’s “shadow fleet” of fuel tankers, operating without Western-regulated insurance, and their potential involvement in sabotage.

The EU plans to take stronger measures to counter the risks posed by these vessels.
