Details : The anchor was found on the seabed and raised to the surface with the help of the HMS Belos, a special ship of the Swedish Navy.

The anchor is now in the hands of the Investigators looking into the damage done to an underwater power transmission line and several communication cables in the Gulf of Finland on the afternoon of 25 December 2024. The main theory is that the cables were torn by the anchor of the Eagle S tanker, which was travelling from a Russian port.

The Eagle S tanker, believed to be part of Russia's shadow fleet and suspected of damaging the cables in the Gulf of Finland on 25 December, is docked in a harbour near the city of Porvoo.

Eight crew members of the Eagle S have been detained as suspects.

The tanker is undergoing an inspection by the Traficom Transport and Communications Agency, which focuses on its technical condition and compliance with all necessary requirements.
