Russia accuses UK Royal Navy personnel of blowing up Nord Stream gas pipelines



Russia’s defence ministry on Saturday (October 29) claimed that British navy personnel blew up the Nord Stream gas pipelines last month, directly accusing a leading NATO member of sabotaging critical Russian infrastructure.

The defence ministry did not provide evidence for its claim.

“According to available information, representatives of this unit of the British Navy took part in the planning, provision and implementation of a terrorist attack in the Baltic Sea on September 26 this year – blowing up the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines,” the ministry said.

Britain’s defence ministry declined immediate comment.

Russia has previously blamed the West for the explosions last month that ruptured the Russian-built Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines on the bed of the Baltic Sea.

  1. Funny how attacks on Russia are terrorist.. but the decimation of Ukraine by Russia is just a "special operation"… the people of Russia are just as guilty as the regime…

  2. Totally preposterous! The Royal Navy wouldn't and couldn't exercise this act unless it was training in a "special military operation." – carry on corporal Jones. 😊

  3. Horrible! Can’t everyone just let Russians kill and bomb without interference? Come on! Russia is so polite. They tell you what they want, and you don’t give it. Waaaaaaa! Russia wants candy, waaaaaa Russia wants land, waaaaa Russia wants your farm waaaaa

  4. I believe that the uk will very involved with the Ukrainians and because of spies in Ukraine telling the russians what is happening this is what you get. Bring it on russia

  5. 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂I CHUCKLED AS HE CALLED OUT THE BRITISH SPECIAL OP SERVICES BASED AT THE BASE😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 I BET THE BRITISH STILL ARROGANTLY ASSUME THAT THEY ARE THE MASTERS IN EVERY FIELD AS THEY ONCE WERE.. AGES AGO. THEY FAILED TO REALIZE…. JUST LIKE NORTHERN IRELAND, ONE CANNOT KNOW WHERE ONES TRUE ALLEGIANCE LIES AND IF THERE ARE SPIES/INFORMANTS AT EVERY LEVEL OF MILITARY NO MATTER HOW SECRET THE PROJECT WILL BE.
    RULE ONE FOR EAST EUROPE AND THE FORMER SOVIET COUNTRIES…. IF THERES VODKA INVOLVED IN THE AFTER HOURS… YOU BET YOUR BACK SIDE… THERES BLABBING INVOLVED…. OTHERWISE THERE WILL BE NO INTEL LEAK EVER…. ALCOHOL AND DRUGS THE FOREMOST REASONS FOR LETTING THE GUARD DOWN.
    LIKE THE BRITISH USED TO SAY IN WW2 : LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS!!!

  6. Why the hell are we the British involved in this war, while the Government are busy sending vast amounts of money to Ukraine and leaving its own vulnerable citizens to pay higher taxes and freeze in the winter, and incidentally how about our own borders?

  7. В МИД РФ заявили, что действие «продуктовой сделки» приостановлено на неопределенный срок

  8. Have the russians not thought that maybe the british navy keep a log of the location of every vessel and personnel… truth will come out soon enough that it was russia who blew it up. They're just playing the blame game to make the west look at fault and so russia have reason to attack without retaliation. Time for someone to deal with russia once and for all. They are worse than hitler

  9. "Russian Bear' is a myth. The world has seen that. The Russian state will collapse again when Adolf Putler dies, and they will have to go back to the 1990s to see if they can make better decisions for their future. They won't though, because they are serfs. The most powerful gangsters and criminals will still be given the country by its own pathetic populace — and they will repeat the process all over again.
