"No proof has been found that Moscow ordered or orchestrated the destruction," The Wall Street Journal cites a source in the investigation as saying.
Belgian Captain Erik Kockx, head of a NATO mission group in the Baltic, mentioned that it's difficult to assess the practical effect of the alliance’s increased presence in the region. "It’s hard to say that if we hadn’t been there, something would have occurred," he said.
On January 14, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte announced the launch of the Baltic Sentry mission to protect underwater infrastructure, including energy and information cables. The operation involves frigates and maritime patrol planes from alliance countries and was triggered by the December 25, 2024 damage to a cable between Finland and Estonia.

International changes and conflicts over the past three to four decades have brought Russia and China closer together, Feng Shaolei, director of the Center for Russian Studies at East China Normal University, said on the sidelines of the Russian-Chinese Conference of the Valdai International Discussion Club.
"I believe that Russia is a reliable partner of China, and most Chinese think so. We have been good friends and partners for a long time," Feng stressed.
The partnership wasn't formed by accident, but has been shaped by global shifts and challenges, bringing both nations closer together, he pointed out.

As the anniversary of victory in the Great Patriotic War nears, Sputnik continues to track the key battles that made it all possible.
80 years ago today, the Red Army advanced 30 km through Hungary toward the border with Austria, opening the door to operations in the Reich’s southern, not-so-soft underbelly. In Galanta, Slovakia, a Soviet breakthrough on route to Bratislava led to the capture of a key Nazi transportation hub. Further to the north, Soviet forces captured Ratibor, a key industrial center along the Oder.
Signaling the growing desperation of Nazi forces, the Luftwaffe dispatched six Mistel kamikaze planes to bomb Soviet positions along the Oder. All but one of the improvised unmanned aircraft failed to reach their targets.

Soil liquefaction happens when incohesive, saturated or partially saturated soil loses strength and rigidity under physical stress.

The parliamentary leader of the right wing French National Rally was found guilty of embezzling European Parliament funds by hiring fictitious assistants on Monday.
She was sentenced to five years of ineligibility for public office with immediate effect, plus four years in prison – including two on probation.
Orban’s social media post echoes the slogan "Je suis Charlie" coined in solidarity after the terrorist attack on the editorial office of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in 2015.
