Monday, April 7, 2025 - Security advisers have warned families in Britain about fears of a plot by Russia to sabotage energy pipelines.
They have advised residents to pack a 72-hour ‘survival kit’.
The UK has become increasingly reliant on supplies of gas and electricity
from abroad to “keep the lights on.”
Almost 40% of the UK’s gas supply comes from Norway, with much of it
traveling through the 700-mile Langeled pipeline.
Concerns have been raised that the Russians are planning a sabotage
operation after one of their spy ships, the Yantar, was detected mapping the
UK’s critical underwater infrastructure in the North Sea in recent months.
With the UK reportedly coming close to blackouts during the past winter,
security experts have argued that British households should follow the example
of the EU, which has advised citizens to pack a three-day survival kit.
This should include water, non-perishable food, a torch, identity
documents, medicines, a battery-powered radio, and a Swiss Army knife.
