New underwater footage raise sabotage suspicions against Yi Peng 3


Experts have raised suspicions of sabotage attempts against Yi Peng 3 following new underwater footage obtained by TV 2.

The underwater footage reveals drag marks on the seabed coinciding with the mysterious maneuvers of the Chinese vessel Yi Peng 3, which occurred just ten days prior to the cable breaks in the Baltic Sea. Suspicious maneuvers AIS data tracking the vessel’s position indicates that the Yi Peng 3 slowed down significantly while passing over the cables, a behavior analysts find unusual for a commercial ship in transit. Jens Wenzel Kristoffersen, a defense analyst at Nordic Defence Analysis, expressed concern over the vessel’s behavior, stating, “It is suspicious for a commercial ship to act this way while in transit.”
