Ukrainian soldier to go on trial over sabotage of Nord Stream gas pipelines

A Ukrainian special‑forces officer, Serhii Kuznetsov, will face a German court on charges of sabotaging the Nord Stream gas pipelines in 2022. Kuznetsov maintains he was not involved in the explosions that severely damaged the under‑sea infrastructure. Prosecutors say evidence links him to the operation, while the trial will examine the alleged wrongdoing and its impact on European energy supplies.
