Nord Stream explosion: Swedish prosecutors announce completion of investigation. In September 2022, an explosion occurred in Nord Stream, an undersea pipeline that transports natural gas from Russia to Germany and other Europe via the Baltic Sea.

In Sweden, where two gas leaks were confirmed in the country's exclusive economic zone, prosecutors said some explosives were found near the sites. While Russia completely denies any involvement in the Nord Stream explosion, it denounces it as ``state-sponsored terrorism'' and claims that the United States and others may have been involved.
