Description
Dutch ships Schiedam and Luymes patrol the Baltic Sea as part of NATO’s “Baltic Sentry” mission, which it launched in January after several electricity and telecommunications cables were severed on the seafloor. Many European officials suspect the cable cuts are acts of sabotage, part of a Russian "hybrid war" against Ukraine's Western allies. "It is very complicated to defend against sabotage. But doing nothing is not an option," says force commander Erik Kockx. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
