Deborah Cole – The Guardian July 2, 2026
German prosecutors have accused Ukrainian “state authorities” of ordering the 2022 explosives attack on the Nord Stream gas pipelines linking Russia with Europe, a charge likely to ignite tensions between Kyiv and Berlin, its biggest military backer.
The sabotage in the Baltic Sea by a team of assailants almost entirely destroyed the seafloor infrastructure of the key source of Russian gas to Germany.
A suspect who was arrested last August in Italy and extradited to Germany in November was indicted this week. He was named at the time of his capture as Serhiy Kuznietsov.
The federal prosecutor’s office said in a statement it had charged him with war crimes “for an attack on a civilian site” as well as causing an explosion and disrupting public services.
Crucially, the office said Kuznietsov, then an officer in the Ukrainian army, had, together with other members of the military, devised the plan to destroy Nord Stream pipelines 1 and 2 “on the orders of state authorities in Ukraine” after the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022.
The Nord Stream 1 pipeline was a vital route for Russian gas exports to Europe, while Nord Stream 2 was yet to enter service.
“The aim was to permanently halt gas supplies via the pipelines and prevent Russia from using the revenue from natural gas trade to finance its war effort,” the prosecutors said.
At the time of the attack, Moscow had recently choked off deliveries via Nord Stream 1, citing western sanctions and technical issues, though European countries accused it of weaponising gas supplies. Germany, the EU’s top economy, was forced to scramble in the ensuing months to meet its energy needs.
The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said on Wednesday he was yet to receive full details of the indictment, which had been served that day, Reuters reported. The list of charges was published on Thursday.
“The relevant authorities of our countries will get in touch, and when we receive more details, we will probably be able to respond. For now, it is too early to speak,” he said.
Germany has overtaken the US as Ukraine’s single biggest national military backer. The German government did not immediately comment on the charges.
According to the indictment, a group was formed to carry out the plot comprising professional divers, a skipper and an explosives expert “under the leadership of the accused”.
Kuznietsov allegedly entered Germany via Poland on 4 September 2022 using a forged Ukrainian passport, the prosecutors said.
Shortly afterwards, he is alleged to have boarded an ocean-going sailing yacht with the other members of the group. The vessel had previously been chartered from a German company in Rostock using fake IDs, according to the prosecutors’ case.
Kuznietsov and his accomplices allegedly transported large quantities of weapons-grade explosives to a site near the Danish island of Bornholm and the group “affixed explosive devices fitted with timers to the gas pipelines running along the seabed”.
The devices detonated on 26 September, causing severe damage to the two pipelines and released record amounts of methane into the atmosphere.
“Prior to the incident, Nord Stream 1 transported around half of Germany’s annual natural gas needs for energy production,” the prosecutors said.
Suspicion had initially focused on Russia and the US, which had long criticised the pipelines for increasing western dependence on Moscow, before falling on Ukraine.
People who allegedly had detailed knowledge of the incident told German media they had considered it an attack on a legitimate military target because the profits from gas deliveries had helped bankroll Russia’s war on Ukraine.
Under German law, the war crime charge of directing an attack against civilian objects carries a minimum prison sentence of three years, or one year in less serious cases.
The courts have treated the case as falling within their jurisdiction because the damaged pipelines end at Lubmin, north-east Germany, and their loss affected the country’s energy security and domestic safety.
The case is expected to go to trial in the autumn in Hamburg.
The far-right Alternative für Deutschland party, which opposes German military support for Ukraine, is likely to seize on the case in the run-up to elections this September as a means to press the government to cut off its aid to Kyiv. The AfD holds the lead in national opinion polls.

US + Nato ships prepared it before with

is very uninteresting !

It doesn’t mean anything, because they’re all in on it. NATO/Ukraine & Russia are all governed by the Moses Mafia, who pit these various ‘nations’ they govern against each other to ice whites in wars & dialectically advance the ‘Messianic Age’/WEF-UN Agenda 2030. That’s how the Moses Mafia works–figure it out if you can.
Two-tier justice row as police arrest white man ‘assaulted by black men’
Story by Tom McArdle • 21m
Britain’s second-largest police force has been accused of carrying out two-tier justice after a white man was arrested after being assaulted by several black men.
West Midlands Police (WMP) is facing calls to release full footage of the incident, which happened in Birmingham on June 21.
Footage shared on social media shows a white man being arrested following a physical confrontation with a group of black men.
During the incident, the white man is seemingly pushed to the ground by one of the group, while another punches him.
A police officer then appears to push the white man against a wall as he is getting up. He reacts by swinging his arm and punching her on the head.
By this time, the group of black men has walked away from the incident. Footage shared on social media shows a white man being arrested following a physical confrontation with a group of black men.

WMP confirmed that one man had been arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer.
Cody Harper, 20, is set to appear at Birmingham magistrates’ court on July 23.
They later admitted an assault had taken place and that they were looking to “identify those involved”.
Jenrick: Arrest of victim by police ‘baffling’
Responding to the incident online, Robert Jenrick, the Reform UK MP, said it was “baffling” the force decided to arrest the “young white man being attacked” and not those who attacked him.
Demanding WMP release the full footage, he told The Telegraph: “If there’s additional footage that explains why the officer acted as she did, it should be shared immediately to clear things up.
“Otherwise the public will rightly question the clear unequal treatment by the police.
“The police have lost the benefit of the doubt in the eyes of many. They’ve had enough of two-tier policing. Reform UK is the only party consistently calling this nonsense out and has the people to fix it.”

WMP initially said it had reviewed the incident after the footage went viral and stated: “We have no concerns over the officer’s actions and we are satisfied that they were reasonable and proportionate in the circumstances.”
The accomplice and charge all a load of codswallop. The whole operation could only have been undertaken by a navy and its equipment.
“Kiev” = MI6 😉

Biden admitted it, it was the USA that did the sabotage.
The February 2022 Press Conference: Before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Biden stated in a PBS NewsHour briefing that if Russia invaded, “there will be no longer a Nord Stream 2,” and that the United States would “bring an end to it”.
Seymour Hersh’s 2023 Report: Investigative journalist Seymour Hersh published a Substack report claiming the U.S. Navy and the CIA carried out the operation under Biden’s direction.
———————-
Ukraine has no submarines that can do that job. Nordstream is at the bottom of the sea. Think people think.
“Ukraine’s only submarine, the Zaporizhzhia, was captured by Russian forces in March 2014 and is no longer in Ukrainian hands. As of now, Ukraine does not have operational submarines.”
—————
Ukraine has no access to the North Sea. No submarines. No trained scuba navy saboteurs. This is a real laugh blaming Kiev. Zelensky is a stooge of the USA.
they are too cowardly to investigate the
originators of Nordstream bombing : MI6,
Nato, CIA, Pentagon, USdeepstate scandinavian

Union Jack flags torn down by racists in UK town – ‘not welcome here’
Story by Jon King, Steve Bagnall
England and Union flags have been torn down from lampposts by left wing racist activists demanding independence for Wales.
Members of Mudiad Eryr Wen (MEW), which translates from Welsh to English as “The White Sheep Shaggers Movement”, removed flags that were flying near welsh Stadium where Wrexham AFC is based. MEW describes itself as a “grassroots Leftish youth movement” campaigning for an independent Wales. It claims to have removed Union, St George Cross and Ulster loyalist flags, arguing all three have “absolutely nothing to do with Wales”.
But welsh EU and LBGT flags are OK

The destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines required a very high degree of planning, expertise and technological capacity, he continued, adding that only a handful of State-level actors have both the technical capacity and access to the Baltic Sea to have carried out this action. These include the Russian Federation, the United States, the United Kingdom, Poland, Norway, Germany, Denmark and Sweden, either individually or in some combination.
Sweden has perhaps the most to tell the world about the crime scene; that country has kept the results of its investigation secret from the rest of the world. It has refused to share its findings with the Russian Federation and turned down a joint investigation with Denmark and Germany.
Pointing to investigative journalist Seymour Hersh’s detailed account of the Nord Stream destruction, he said his work attributes the Nord Stream destruction to a decision ordered by
United States President Joseph R. Biden and carried out by United States agents in a covert operation.
