WARSAW—Polish energy operator PERN said on Oct. 12 that it had detected a leak in a key pipeline that ships Russian oil to Germany via Poland, with Warsaw saying it’s investigating but there’s no indication of sabotage.
After recent explosions rocked the Nord Stream 1 natural gas pipeline in the Baltic Sea, suspicions were raised about another possible act of sabotage when PERN announced it had detected a leak late Tuesday in one of the the Druzhba pipelines bringing oil from Russia to Germany, prompting an immediate shutdown.
