Gas leak from Nord Stream 1 and 2, footage from the Danish Defence, powerful blasts in the areas

Seismologists in Denmark and Sweden on Monday registered powerful blasts in the areas of the Nord Stream gas leaks.

Danish Defence has posted footage of what it says is a gas leak from Nord Stream 1 and 2.

The first footage of gas leaks within Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea. The footage was taken from a helicopter over the rupture in the pipe.

The operator of Nord Stream 1 said the undersea lines had simultaneously sustained "unprecedented" damage in one day.

Whatever the cause of the damage, it will not immediately affect the supply of gas to Europe as neither pipeline was operational.

"The damage that occurred in one day simultaneously at three lines of offshore pipelines of the Nord Stream system are unprecedented. It is impossible to estimate the time frame for the recovery of the gas transport infrastructure so far," the company said.

The gas leak caused a surface disturbance of well over 1 kilometer in diameter, Denmark’s armed forces said.

Separately, seismologists in Denmark and Sweden on Monday registered powerful blasts in the areas of the Nord Stream gas leaks, Sweden’s National Seismology Centre (SNSN) at the Uppsala University told public broadcaster SVT on Tuesday.

“There is no doubt that these were explosions,” SNSN seismologist Bjorn Lund said.
