"K., whose full name is withheld due to the German press code guidelines, was arrested last month in connection with the September 2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream pipelines that brought Russian gas to Europe. A series of underwater explosions caused serious damage to the pairs of Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines, and essentially rendered all four inoperable. Controversial even before the Russian invasion of Ukraine for increasing Europe's reliance on Moscow, Nord Stream had become increasingly so following the outbreak of the war."
"What you need to know The Ukrainian national suspected of being part of a conspiracy to attack the Nord Stream gas pipelines has been clear for extradition by Italian, though his lawyers said he would appeal. A series of raids were carried out in three German states against a group of suspected right-wing extremists. Many in Germany are starting to feel the squeeze as cost of living rises dramatically."
An Italian court ordered the extradition of Ukrainian national Serhii K. to Germany in connection with the September 2022 Nord Stream pipeline sabotage. Underwater explosions severely damaged Nord Stream 1 and 2, rendering all four pipes inoperable and prompting investigations by Sweden, Denmark and Germany. Germany previously received over half its gas from Russia, heightening the pipelines' controversy after the war. German authorities completed an initial probe in August 2024 and issued an arrest warrant. Separate German developments include raids against suspected right-wing extremists and a life sentence in Mannheim for an Afghan man who stabbed a police officer.
