The break was originally the smaller of the two leaks that were revealed in Swedish dominance last week. The largest leak has not been visible on the surface since Monday morning, the coast guard said.
Last week, two more leaks were also reported in Denmark’s exclusive economic zone, triggering investigations and increasing the security of the region’s main electricity infrastructure. Nord Stream pipelines cross the Baltic Sea into Germany from Russia, operating on the seabed in waters.
