Ukrainian man arrested over Nord Stream gas pipelines blast | BBC News
German prosecutors say a Ukrainian man has been arrested in Italy on suspicion of blowing up the Nord Stream gas pipelines under the Baltic Sea, several months after the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
The man, identified only as Serhii K, was arrested in the province of Rimini and was part of a group who planted explosives under the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines from Russia to Germany, federal prosecutors said.
Blasts on the Nord Stream gas pipelines severed a key source of natural gas for Europe when leaders were facing an energy crisis triggered by Russia’s war.
No-one admitted carrying out the attack, and Ukraine has denied involvement.
The Ukrainian, who was detained by Italy’s carabinieri military police stationed in the northern coastal resort of Misano Adriatico, is suspected of being one of the masterminds of the operation.

The surprise removal by Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky’s of the popular Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov has caused an outburst of anger and mass protests.
A crowd of mostly young people gathered in Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities holding banners reading “Hands off Fedorov” and “Stop sabotaging victory!” and chanting “Shame!”.
Fedorov, who was appointed in January, is seen as the architect of the recent success of Ukraine in carrying out drone attacks deep inside Russia.
Zelensky has put forward Major General Yevhenii Khmara, the acting head of the Security Service, as acting defence minister.
Zelensky said: “Khmara has gained extensive and, in many respects, unprecedented experience with technological combat operations.”
Rumours that Fedorov’s removal was related to tensions between him and Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi were all but confirmed by both Fedorov and Zelensky.
Fedorov said he had suggested to Zelensky that Syrskyi and Chief of the General Staff Andrii Hnatov should be replaced.
Zelensky said that conflict between the General Staff and the defence ministry had been “systemic” and said that Syrskyi and Fedorov would only work together with his mediation.
