2/ The undersea cable between Lithuania and Sweden has also been cut. Very unlikely to be accidental. Putin is sending a “message” in his characteristically Mob boss style. — www.lrt.lt/en/news-in-e...

/3. Sweden-Lithuania cable was cut on Sunday morning, at around 10:00. The systems immediately reported that. Internet connection to Lithuania runs through three cables, which means that the internet bandwidth was reduced by one-third due to the incident. www.lrt.lt/en/news-in-…

Immediately two communication cables were damaged in the Baltic Sea. First one between Finland and Germany. Second between Sweden and Lithuania. Finland-German cable is believed to have broken due to an external force such as anchoring or bottom trawling. The cable is almost [ima…

Some more stills. She has a 9 hour out of range window around the time of BSC incident. She was 1.5 NMi from C-Lion 1 as it went down. She moves very slowly at points and normal speed later. [image]

There is an even better match: Yin Feng 3 She passes BSC at Nov 17 08:00Z (match). She was 2 NMi from C-Lion Nov 17 02:04Z. She made a very odd 70 minute maneuver a few hours later. She is leaving Baltics as we speak, Fehmarn next. [image]
