Seni protected edit requst - Russian ships Sibiryakov and SB-123

Can an authenticated editor take a look at the BBC page https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-65461401 and mention the presence of three Russian ships, Sibiryakov, SB-123 and one unidentified ship, all operating in in the area with their transmitters switched off. Thanks. 92.8.55.100 (talk) 07:22, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 6 May 2023

I have seen the investigation by the Nordic public broadcasters DR, NRK, SVT, and Yle and would like to expand with more detailed information from it in the section "Involvement by Russia".

This is the information I would like to add:

"On 3 May 2023 an investigation called “Skuggkriget” (Shadow War) by the Nordic public broadcasters DR, NRK, SVT, and Yle described "highly unusual" movements by ships thought to include Russian ships such as the tugboat SB-123, naval research vessel Sibiryakov, and another unspecified ship from the naval fleet. These ships had their transmitters for the Automatic identification system (AIS) turned off, and were reported to be in the area of the explosions between June up until 22 September, 2022.

One of the investigative journalists working for DR, Niels Fastrup, spoke to an English source who wished to be anonymous and who was given the alias “James”. James is a former British royal navy communications officer who has worked with signal intelligence in his earlier career, and he has recorded radio communication between ships in both the Baltic Sea and the English Channel. This communication entails both contact between ships and their location. James used the Internet and open source intelligence like unencrypted and encrypted radio data in order to collect his data. By noticing suspicious activity in the communication and their location he could pinpoint ships and vessels which were in the area of the Nord Steam explosions sites and could thus have planted the equipment necessary for detonation. The data from this source was corroborated by satellite imagery from KSAT and Scandinavian imagery expert Tony Bauna. KSAT found 14 images that coincide with the radio data track of the vessel. In addition, high resolution optical photos of Sibirjakov from ports were found. The two vessels could, from this data, be pinpointed to being 3 km from the south explosion site and virtually precisely above the north explosion site. H.I. Sutton, a marine analyst expert, verifies the data collected by James to be credible and very suspicious activity by the concerned ships and vessels. It is important to note that this data cannot prove that Russia is behind the operations but the presence of these Russian vessels in the area during the time period, with their transmitting AIS turned off, is highly suspicious."

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. The sources you've given do not provide any information in regards to your edit request. Linking to a documentary, that is potentially lacking notability, fails WP:V. Callmemirela 🍁 21:25, 6 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WSJ article on German investigation

I am impressed by the details revealed in this article about the German investigation. It's paywalled but the archive link is full. -- GreenC 03:21, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I have added it to the article. --Cerebellum (talk) 00:04, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dutch intelligence tipped CIA on alleged Ukraine plan

Someone who has the required permissions should probably add this news article to the Speculation section. This is probably the "unnamed European intelligence agency" that The Washington Post reported (although stating it like that is probably original research).

Requested move 6 July 2023

2022 Nord Stream pipeline sabotage → Nord Stream pipelines sabotage – There were two pipelines damaged, hence pipeline should be plural. Also possibly doesn't need year, per WP:NOYEAR.. 90.255.6.219 (talk) 10:42, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:GS/RUSUKR, non-extended confirmed users are not allowed to participate in internal project discussions on articles related to the war. —Michael Z. 22:54, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
