Headline: Remarkable Footage Shows Nord Stream Pipeline Leaking Into The Baltic Sea

Caption: **VIDEO AVAILABLE: CONTACT INFO@COVERMG.COM TO RECEIVE** These astonishing images and video show a leak in the Nord Stream 2 pipeline in the Baltic Sea on Tuesday (27September2022). Nord Stream 1,which is also leaking, was built in 2011, and took gas from Russia to Germany and on to Europe until Russian officials shut it down “indefinitely” earlier this month. The footage was taken by a Danish Defense helicopter. In a statement, the Danish military said: “Following the three gas leaks on the Nord Stream gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea, prohibition zones have been established around the leaks for the sake of the safety of ship and air traffic. “Nord Stream 1 has two leaks northeast of Bornholm, Nord Stream 2 has one leak south of Dueodde. The leaks were discovered by the Danish Defence F-16 interceptor response unit. “The defense is supporting in connection with the authorities' efforts regarding the leaks on the Nord Stream gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea. The frigate Absalon and the pollution control vessel ship Gunnar Thorson are on their way to carry out water monitoring at the exclusion zones, and the Danish Defence are also supporting with a helicopter capacity. In addition, the patrol ship Rota was in the area last night.” Work on Nord Stream 2 was suspended as Russia prepared to invade Ukraine in February.
