MALICIOUS ACTORS: Concerns of intentional sabotage and raising fears of a hybrid warfare campaign

In recent years, the Baltic Sea has experienced an increase in incidents involving damage to subsea infrastructure, including the Nordstream pipelines in 2022 and multiple internet cables and a gas pipeline in 2023-2024. 

While the 2022 Nordstream incident was confirmed as sabotage, later incidents have involved suspicious anchor drags by Chinese-registered vessels and vessels linked to Russia's "shadow fleet," leading to concerns of intentional sabotage and raising fears of a hybrid warfare campaign by Russia or other malicious actors

NATO naval forces conducted a special operation in the Øresund Strait after a Russian fishing vessel experienced a sudden breakdown in Swedish waters and anchored near a key undersea gas pipeline, according to Postimees on September 15.
The vessel involved, the “Mechanik Stepanov,” is a newly built 50-meter-long crab boat commissioned in 2025. The incident occurred on September 13, when the ship reported engine trouble and a power outage, causing it to drift toward Danish waters.
According to Postimees, Sweden’s Coast Guard deployed a vessel to shadow the Russian ship, while naval assets from Denmark and the United Kingdom joined the operation.
The Danish Navy confirmed to broadcaster TV2 that its warships, together with British vessels, were positioned near the Mechanik Stepanov but declined to provide additional details about the mission.
