New disturbance has been detected on the submarine cable between Finland and Germany in the Baltic Sea, said Finnish state-owned data transmission company Cinia in a press release on Friday.
The suspected damaged was discovered in Sweden's exclusive economic zone on Wednesday, said the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI).
The disturbance on the C-Lion1 submarine cable, however, did not affect the functionality of telecommunications connections running in the cable.
The data traffic continues flowing normally, said Cinia.
Meanwhile, the NBI has started a preliminary inquiry relating to the rupture.
The preliminary inquiry was started on 20 February on the basis of the information and request for investigation obtained, said NBI in a press release.
International cooperation is carried out for establishing the course of events.
Earlier in November 2024, the submarine cable went out of service due to a fault.
C-Lion1 is a submarine telecommunications cable between Finland and Germany, owned by Cinia, with a length of 1173 kilometers.
The submarine cable was commissioned in 2016 and connects Central European telecommunications networks to Finland and the other Nordic countries.
