Nearly two years after the Nord Stream pipeline explosions in the Baltic Sea, investigations have taken a significant turn.

German authorities have issued a European arrest warrant for a Ukrainian national, Wolodymyr Z.

, suspected of involvement in the sabotage.

Reports suggest that Z.

, a professional diver, was part of a group that used the yacht 'Andromeda' to plant explosives on the pipelines.

Despite efforts, Z.

has evaded capture, reportedly crossing from Poland into Ukraine.

The case has strained relations between Germany, Poland, and Ukraine, with political implications due to the sensitive nature of the pipelines, which were a point of contention in European energy politics.

The investigation continues, with Germany leading the efforts after Sweden and Denmark ceased their inquiries.
