"The repair is underway"
Russia also complains about damage to submarine cable
Russia has now also complained about damage to an undersea cable. The damage to the Baltika telecommunications cable was caused by external influences some time ago, the Russian state-owned company Rostelekom announced in Moscow.
"Repair work is underway," a statement from the company was quoted as saying by the state news agency RIA Novosti. The cable damage had no impact on customers.
The Finnish Coast Guard announced on the short message service X that it was monitoring the repair of a ruptured undersea cable by a Russian ship in Finland's exclusive economic zone.
Finns have known about the damage since the end of December
The work will take around a week, reported Finnish radio station Yle, citing the Ministry of Economic Affairs in Helsinki. The responsible ministry had been aware of the damage to the cable since December 27.
The connection runs between St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad. The Finnish information also mentioned a second, parallel Russian cable that was also damaged.
According to Yle, the Russian telecom cable Baltika crosses the cable between Finland and Estonia that was damaged at Christmas on December 25. The tanker "Eagle S", which belongs to the Russian shadow fleet and is still moored off the coast of Finland on the instructions of the authorities, is suspected. The NATO countries bordering the Baltic Sea have stepped up their naval patrols due to several cable damages, which are suspected to be the result of Russian sabotage.
