Cinia working with authorities to investigate what caused outage in 745-mile line between Germany and Finland
A fibre optic communications cable linking Finland and Germany along the seabed has stopped working and may have been severed by an outside force, the Finnish state-controlled cyber-security and telecoms network company Cinia has said.
The 745-mile (1,200km) C-Lion1 cable running through the Baltic Sea from Finland’s capital, Helsinki, to the German port of Rostock malfunctioned just after 02.00 GMT, the company said.
