Dec 8, 2024, 10:37 AM

Security officials in Britain have intensified surveillance around vital gas pipelines connected to Norway due to mounting fears that Russia could sabotage the UK's gas supply, potentially triggering blackouts. This heightened alert comes in response to concerns that Russia might target subsea energy links, prompting Britain, Germany, and the U.S. to step up North Sea surveillance, including the deployment of RAF and Poseidon P-8 anti-submarine planes. The Royal Air Force (RAF) is also on alert over the threat of sabotage to key gas pipelines, as reported by The Telegraph.
