NATO launches new Baltic Sea mission to protect undersea cables

NATO has launched a Baltic Sea monitoring mission in response to recent suspected sabotage of undersea cables, stating the operation will "continue for an undisclosed amount of time."
NATO Chief Mark Rutte emphasized the importance of safeguarding infrastructure, noting that over 95 percent of internet traffic is secured via undersea cables.
Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson remarked that the increase in damages is "totally unacceptable" but refrained from assigning blame without firm proof.
Investigations into the incidents are ongoing, with suspicions directed towards a "shadow fleet" of vessels linked to Russia's activities in the region.
