For a year, the bottom of the Baltic Sea was overwhelmingly quiet.

Then, within a few days, six cables were damaged or even cut.

But the world was watching Washington, Venezuela and Greenland.

Underappreciated fact:

The paths and positions of the cable damages around New Years 2026 were to most of Estonia's internet backbone routes.

Had it fully succeeded/happened by accident (lol) Estonia would have been left with a crippled connectivity.

Any Western troops will be classed as foreign interference in Russia's Ukraine, and be considered as military targets, just like hospitals, schools and apartment blocks are.
