Reuters: NATO a dejucat o operațiune rusă în Arctica

NATO has intercepted a clandestine Russian underwater operation near Svalbard, where Russian submarines simulated using technology that could damage submarine communication cables. This operation, conducted by Russia's Main Directorate for Underwater Research, was monitored by allies but did not cause actual damage. The exercise raised concerns about potential threats to critical infrastructure in the event of a direct conflict with NATO. Following previous incidents, NATO and European nations have increased protective measures for submarine cables, which are vital for international communications. The activities near these infrastructures have heightened fears of Russian testing NATO's response limits.
