VILNIUS/HELSINKI—The three incidents that resulted in damage to a gas pipeline and two telecom cables between Estonia, Finland, and Sweden “are related,” Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas said.

Finland on Friday said it had raised its risk assessment for gas supply security as a result of the damage to the Balticconnector Finland-Estonia pipeline, which operator Gasgrid has said could be out of commission until April or longer.
