Damage has been found on the anchor of a Chinese ship suspected of involvement in the recent spate of damage to undersea communication cables in the Baltic Sea in Northern Europe, and it has been reported that the cable may have been cut intentionally. On the 27th, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing an investigator, that “an investigation of the Chinese-flagged cargo ship Yipeng 3 found damage to its anchor indicating that the cable had been cut.” The Iho 3 is said to have sailed about 180 km in Swedish waters in the Baltic Sea with its anchor lowered between the 17th and 18th, and Western investigative agencies have said they suspect the Iho 3 of having engaged in sabotage. They will also be investigating whether Russian intelligence agencies were behind the attack. The Iho 3 is currently anchored in Danish waters and the Swedish government has requested that it be moved into Swedish territorial waters for investigation. 11/28 (Thu) 2:09 Published ※Related thread 【afp】 Danish Navy pursuing Chinese Communist Party vessel in Baltic Sea where cable breaks occur one after another [11/21] [Masked Unida★].
>>7 We are investigating how long it will take to restore service by cutting it off. In the last century, the Russians would sometimes slash communication cables between Okinawa and the mainland, harassing us to see how long it would take to repair them in the event of a Japanese emergency. That was back when there was no internet yet.
It’s a rehearsal. They’re planning to paralyze the world’s telecommunications networks and economies before a real emergency occurs. With the recent crash of a DHL cargo plane, even private commerce in general is starting to look fishy. Especially in China, with the National Defense Mobilization Law, everyone from ordinary citizens to agents and soldiers in guerrilla garb has been turned into a spy.
An undersea cable should be strong enough to be pulled up to the surface if it’s hooked on to something… I wonder if the inside of the anchor was sharpened like a blade?
>>27 It won’t be a compensation issue. Well, it seems like the punch line is that they don’t even have the funds to seize the dummy company that will be shut down soon anyway, but the main owner of the company that went through a few dummy companies is probably the Liberation Army, so it’s probably something they should claim against the Liberation Army.
Apparently, this ship was being monitored by GPS for a long time as its bow kept changing direction near the cable, and they kept marking it. www.bouken-asobi.com/map_ais.html Anyone can see this.
This time it was by ship, but if China were to intentionally place flammable or explosives in mail-order packages, the transportation network would quickly become chaotic.
