Not in list: the attempt by Yi Peng 3 to rip the electrical cables to Læsø, Denmark.
The crew of Yi Peng 3, which is captained by a Chinese national and includes a Russian sailor, hasn't so far been questioned... Several Western law enforcement and intelligence officials said they didn't think the Chinese government was involved in the incident but that they suspected Russian intelligence agencies were behind the sabotage.
