Tallinn: Estonia has begun naval patrols to protect a cable supplying electricity from Finland following suspected sabotage of another one on Christmas Day, Defence Minister Hanno Pevkur said Friday.
"We've decided to send our navy close to Estlink 1 to defend and secure our energy connection with Finland," he posted on X.
The Estlink 2 submarine cable was disconnected from the grid on Wednesday, just over a month after two telecommunications cables were severed in Swedish territorial waters in the Baltic Sea.
Finnish authorities said Thursday that they were investigating an oil tanker that sailed from a Russian port over the suspected "sabotage".
