Chinese vessel spotted where Baltic Sea cables were severed
Summary
Sweden is investigating the Chinese vessel Yi Peng 3 after it was tracked near two severed Baltic Sea data cables connecting Sweden-Lithuania and Finland-Germany, incidents suspected to be sabotage.
The cables were damaged within 24 hours, and Germany called it a likely act of “hybrid warfare.”
The ship, owned by a Chinese company, follows a similar 2023 case involving a Chinese vessel damaging a Baltic gas pipeline.
Germany, Sweden, Finland, and Lithuania expressed concerns, citing increased hybrid threats
Is anything going to come of this or are they gonna get away with it as always
What do you want to happen?
Oh, wait, do we get to pick? excited noises
For an automatic monitoring system to go "ping-ping-ping" and then a naval drone goes after the offending ship.
Nuke the yi peng or something like that
At least a global effort to tariff them to some degree ao we arent completly reliant on them to the point we have no bargaining power whatsoever.
