Finnish investigators probing the damage to a Baltic Sea power cable and several data cables said they found an anchor drag mark on the seabed, apparently from a Russia-linked vessel that has already been seized.

Finnish authorities discovered anchor drag marks on the seabed just a day after it moved the Eagle S to a safer anchorage to help further its investigation.

Finnish investigators have uncovered an underwater trail stretching nearly 100 kilometers around the site where a cable was severed on Christmas Day. The ship suspected of carrying out this act of sabotage is named Eagle S and sails under the flag of the Cook Islands.
