Major fears Russia could target Atlantic web cables off Irish coast after pipeline blast​

RUSSIA could target the underwater Internet cables which connect Europe to the US off the Irish coast, a politician has warned.

Last January, a few weeks before Vladimir Putin launched his deadly invasion on Ukraine, a band of Irish fishermen faced down a flotilla of Russian warships in Irish waters near west Cork.

They claimed they were in the area to perform military drills but pulled out as an “act of goodwill” after Defence Minister Simon Coveney wrote to his Russian counterpart.

But after the Nordstream gas pipeline in the Baltic Sea was bombed this week, cutting off Russian gas to the rest of Europe, Fianna Fail MEP Billy Kelleher has said it would be “naive” to think the warships were in the area at the time carrying out routine manoeuvres.


He told the Irish Sun: “Ireland is in a unique position in that we are the closest country to mainland Europe.

“All communications between the US and Europe goes through a series of cables which run very close to the coast of Ireland. What do you think Russian warships were doing in that area earlier this year?

It’s likely they were doing a full blown recce. And after they blew up the Nordstream pipeline we have to be aware that Putin is capable of anything.

“Russia is a rogue, terrorist State and we have to treat it as such. What if they target those communications cables? The effect it could have on Internet connections and stock markets could be catastrophic. It could cripple the world economy.”

IMPORTANT ROLE​


Mr Kelleher said we needed to monitor any Russian presence in the area but Ireland was not capable of defending the cables.

He added: “Ireland has a very important role to play in all of this because of our closeness to mainland Europe and the cables coming directly from the US.


“But the Irish Defences Forces does not have the military might to protect those cables from Russian aggression.


“We need to monitor the waters and our skies closely as best we can because the Russian war has to capabilities of really expanding and now Putin has threatened the west with nuclear weapons we need to stay very alert.”

There are currently 16 cables running under the Atlantic connecting the USA with Ireland, the UK, and mainland Europe but specifically France, Germany and Holland.

WORLD'S INTERNET​

Some of the cables come ashore off the west coast in the Mayo area and then go on to Dublin and Britain, while others divert to France about 150 miles off the Cork coastline.


A huge amount of the world’s internet data is carried along the cables which effectively connects the old western world with the new world.

British, French and American naval forces have regularly been in the area all year trying to protect the undersea connections from possible Russia attacks.


Irish Army Ranger and Independent TD Cathal Berry has previously warned that Ireland was a sitting duck for a cyber attack.



He also claimed that the Irish Navy does not have the sonar equipment to detect submarines in our waters and to stop them interfering with the cables.


He warned the Dail this week: “We were defenceless yesterday and we still are defenceless today.

“We are playing Russian roulette with Irish sovereignty and our territorial integrity.

We have absolutely no means of policing our airspace, and no means of properly patrolling our home waters and we are very very vulnerable and very exposed from that point of view.
“We spend less than one third of what other EU countries spend on defence.
Nasubiri sana hili jambo, manina zao wazungu.. Jino kwa jino

😄😄 Naona Norway wao wameshaweka boats Kama 90 za kulinda kwny sehemu zao, helcopters kibao na wamefunga sensors kibao za ku-detect Kitu chochote kwny maji around hayo maeneo Yao.Nadhani wameshajua yajayo yatawafurahisha.
 
Bro hiyo Gas wamesema itaendelea kuvuja hvyohvyo Kwa week au zaidi sababu mlipuko wake ulikua ni mkubwa sana sawa na tetemeko la ardhi lenye ukubwa wa 2.3 magnitude.

Na matengenezo yake si ya muda mfupi kama unavyoeleza hapo wamesema itachukua muda lakini hawajaspecify ni muda gani,na shida inakuja kwamba vifaa vingi vilivyotumika kwenye hilo bomba vinatoka Ulaya na vingi kwa wakati huu vipo chini ya vikwazo ndio maana experts wanasema kurudisha hilo bomba kwenye hali yake ya kawaida kama mwanzo inaweza kuchukua hata miezi.
Itachukua week au zaidi bado unaungana na mimi MKUU
Kuhusiana na vikwazo EU hawapo tayar kuumia linapokuja suala lamaslahi yao mzeee
Yaani waendelee kueka vikwazo wakati wanaumia
Kama wataona kuna haja yakuondoa vikwazo kwamaslahi yao si fasta tu hata dakika haiishi

Gas ilikua ni political strategic card ya Putin na sasa hiyo strategic card haipo tena imeharibiwa,alikua anasubiri winter ili awablack mail Europe vizuri waondoshe vikwazo ili wapate Gas. Na hili tuliona likija, ukiangalia Germany ilikua na inasuasua kupeleka baadhi ya silaha nzito Ukraine nadhani hii ni ili kutomkasirisha zaidi Putin kwamba baadae wangerudi kwenye mazungumzo wapate Gas na wao waondoshe vikwazo, win-win. Sasa Putin kawahiwa hana card nyingine tena zaidi ya Gas,Labda kutishia nyuklia.

Wachambuzi wanasema kuna uwezekano hayo mabomba yasifanye kazi tena sababu uharibifu uliotokea ni mkubwa na maji ya Bahari yanazidi kuharibu sehemu nzima zilizobaki.
Mkuu una ujuaji mwingi sana kumbe una uelewa mdogo kuhusu haya mambo.

Cha kwanza baadhi ya viongozi wa ulaya na hata Ukraine yenyewe Wana shuku Urusi ndio imehusika kuyalipua mabomba kwa makusudi ili bei ya gesi iendelee kuwa bei juu zaidi ila Urusi inakanusha .

Pili unacho takiwa kujua ni kuwa Urusi ilikuwa imesha zuia zaidi ya asilimia 90 ya gesi iliyo kuwa ina tiririka kwenda Ulaya kupitia hayo mabomba yaliyo lipuka kwa hiyo hakuna jipya.

Kulipuka kwa mabomba hayo Urusi hana hasara yeyote, kwa sababu kuharibika kwa hayo mabomba kuta sababisha kupanda zaidi kwa bei ya gesi barani ulaya jambo ambalo ni faida kwa Urusi maana mpaka sasa bado Urusi inauza gesi nyingi tu Ulaya kupitia mabomba yanayo pita ndani ya Ukraine.
 
EU Threatens Retaliation if Nord Stream Sabotage Proven

EU Foreign Policy chief Josep Borrell believes Tuesday’s damage to the Nord Stream pipelines was deliberate sabotage, and has warned it will be met with a “robust” response.

Reports emerged on Tuesday of explosions from under the Baltic Sea with unusual leaks discovered on the Nord Stream 1 & 2 pipelines.

Danish PM Mette Fredriksen said that authorities insist it was a deliberate act, but added that there was “no information indicating who could be behind it,” despite Polish MEP Radoslaw Sikorski insinuating on Twitter that the US was responsible.
