Følg med i historien om det kinesiske skib, Yi Peng 3, der har trukket opmærksomheden i en sag om mulig sabotage af datakabler i Østersøen.

I en dramatisk udvikling på Østersøen har den danske marine taget det kinesiske fragtskib Yi Peng 3 til fange, som er mistænkt for at have beskadiget kritiske telekommunikationskabler. Begivenheden fandt sted den 19. november, da danske skibe, herunder Y311 Søløven, observerede det 23 år gamle skib, captained af en russisk officer, og besluttede at intervenere. Med al teknik og overvågning, der følger med moderne spionage, har denne sag fanget journalistisk opmærksomhed i hele Skandinavien. Det er en historie fyldt med mystik og international spænding, der kan minde om en plotvending i en thrillerfilm.

Under efterforskningen er det kommet frem, at Yi Peng 3 havde bevæget sig tæt på de områder, hvor datakablerne blev skadet – hvilket ikke kan betragtes som en tilfældighed. Svenske og finske medier har intensiveret dækningen, og nu flokkes eksperter om at analyserer det mulige motivationslag, herunder spørgsmålet om, hvorvidt det er en del af en større geopolitisk spil. At et skib, der er registreret i Kina og captained af en russisk officer, befinder sig i denne konfrontation, gør kun situationen mere kompleks.

Samtidig har en juridisk ekspert udtalt til Newsweek, at efterforskningen kan tage årevis og muligvis involvere både internationale domstole og diplomatiske forhandlinger. Alt dette sker i skyggen af tidligere hændelser, hvor kinesiske skibe har været involveret i relaterede bombastiske situationer i Østersø-området. Hvad er egentlig hændelsen omkring Yi Peng 3, og hvordan vil den påvirke fremtidige relationer mellem Danmark, Sverige og Kina?

I takt med at efterforskningen fortsætter, vokser mysteriet om, hvad der egentlig skete i de kølige vande over Østersøens bund. Hvad angår undersea kommunikationskabler, har de ikke kun betydning for internettet, men også for den globale økonomi og national sikkerhed. På den lysere side er der en sjov kendsgerning: Østersøen er også hjemsted for en rig biodiversitet, inklusive mere end 1800 marine arter! Så mens der er drama oven vande, river livet under overfladen for at tilpasse sig ændringerne.
