On the 27th, the Danish military announced that gas leaks were confirmed in three places off the island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea over the natural gas pipeline from Russia to Germany.
According to it, gas leaks occurred in two of the two pipelines, Nord Stream 1 and one in Nord Stream 2, and the military reportedly saw a video of bubbles appearing on the surface of the sea, which is believed to be caused by the gas leak. In addition, the Danish authorities have banned navigation within 5 nautical miles off the coast of the island, saying that it is dangerous to maritime traffic.
