The Swedish coastguard has reportedly found a fourth leak on the Nord Stream pipeline
The European Union also believes sabotage is to blame but Russia has said accusations it is responsible are"predictable" and"stupid".
Nord Stream 2 runs from Russia to Germany and had been due to carry gas to Europe until Russia invaded Ukraine and Germany refused a licence. Sweden's national seismology centre said"powerful subsea blasts" were recorded in the area the leaks occurred. "We do not take this very easy - it's something we are working closely on with allies in the EU and NATO."Experts say teams with underwater drones will likely be sent to investigate, but that it could take a week or so before it's safe enough to do so.
