Sweden has sent a formal request to China to cooperate with an investigation into suspected sabotage over the sudden disruption of two submarine internet cables in the Baltic Sea earlier this month, after tracking data linked a Chinese ship to the incidents.

The Lithuanian unit of the Swedish telecommunications company Telia Lietuva has repaired the communication cable between Lithuania and Sweden in the Baltic Sea. The cable was damaged about two weeks ago,

Another cable at the bottom of the Baltic, between Sweden and Lithuania, was broken a day before Cinia's cable was damaged. It was repaired on Thursday evening, according to Arelion, the Swedish firm that manages the cable. That cable is now operating at full capacity, Arelion told news service STT.
