Summary

The undersea Estlink-2 power cable linking Finland and Estonia experienced an outage on Wednesday, prompting an investigation, Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo announced.

Authorities stated the disruption will not affect electricity supplies in Finland or Estonia.

Concerns are heightened due to recent incidents involving undersea infrastructure in the Baltic, including severed data cables in November and the 2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines.

The cause of the Estlink-2 outage remains unclear.

          The assassinations will continue until morale improves.

            Well tbh Medvedev has this suicidal tendency to start a nuclear WW3. He can’t wait to press that damn red button. He is the likely successor and as much as I despise putin, at least he’s “just” a bloodthirsty sociopath who doesn’t want to unalive himself

            The first rule of history is that it can always get worse.

            Maybe it doesn’t. Or maybe somebody starts a nuclear war to avenge Putin.
