Russische invasie: Situatie dag 429
April 28, 2023 - Denmark has confirmed the sighting of a Russian SS-750 specialised vessel carrying a submarine near the Nord Stream pipelines shortly before they were sabotaged in September 2022.
Photographs of the vessel were taken by a Danish patrol boat on September 22. Four leaks from the damaged Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines built to transport gas from Russia to Germany were discovered between September 26-28.
Over 800km of Russian lines protecting occupied Ukraine and along the Russian border with Ukraine have been “triple-fortified” in anticipation of a spring Ukrainian offensive. Thousand of new defensive positions have been constructed to slow any Ukrainian advances, amid a growing realisation in Moscow that after their largely ineffective winter offensive, a Ukrainian military armed with the latest Western weapons could make new territorial gains.
