Denmark Accuses Russia of Military Provocations in its Straits
Denmark’s military intelligence has accused Russian warships of engaging in aggressive actions within the Danish straits connecting the Baltic and North Seas. These actions reportedly included aiming weapons at Danish vessels and helicopters, conducting dangerous maneuvers, and jamming navigation systems. Director Thomas Ahrenkiel presented evidence of these provocations, including the extended presence of a Russian warship in Danish waters, which is viewed as a signal from Moscow. The intelligence also registered Russian ships using sonar and electronic warfare equipment, which is believed to have caused GPS disruptions. The White House has stated it takes the reports of Russian naval provocations seriously and is in contact with NATO allies.
