Finnish authorities have boarded a foreign oil tanker escorted into its waters after disruptions on a subsea power link and several data cables.
The police and border guard boarded the vessel, Eagle S, for investigations. The ship, sailing under the Cook Islands flag, was observed to be missing its anchor, Finnish authorities said at a news conference Thursday. The anchor is believed to have caused the damage, they said.
