A Russian-linked tanker, the Eagle S, is suspected of intentionally damaging critical undersea cables in the Baltic Sea, including an electricity cable between Finland and Estonia. This incident, occurring amidst rising tensions with Russia and coinciding with Russian aircraft incursions into NATO airspace, has led to Finland's unprecedented boarding of the vessel and subsequent charges. The tanker's ownership is tied to Russia's 'shadow fleet,' used to evade sanctions, raising concerns of deliberate sabotage and hybrid warfare.
