Danish Navy Intercepts Chinese Ship Near Damaged Undersea Cables
Following the suspected sabotage of undersea internet cables connecting Finland and Sweden to Central Europe, the Danish Navy has reportedly detained the Chinese bulk carrier *Yi Peng 3*, which was observed near the incident sites. Danish naval vessels shadowed the *Yi Peng 3* as Swedish authorities also investigate the vessel’s activities. The *Yi Peng 3*’s proximity to the damaged cables, coupled with previous incidents involving Chinese vessels and undersea infrastructure, has raised serious concerns. These events underscore the vulnerability of critical undersea infrastructure and the potential for escalation.
