GoKawiilReport: 17 Russian trawlers tracked mapping transatlantic undersea cables
The Telegraph reports that analysis of Global Fishing Watch satellite data found over 500 incidents in four and a half years where Russian fishing trawlers lingered above critical undersea communications cables linking the US and Europe. Examples include vessels tracing the routes of the Atlantic Crossing 1, TAT-14, Hibernia Express, Shefa-2, Amitie and Grace Hopper cables, often slowing to two or three knots near the infrastructure.
