Ukrainian state authorities were behind the
2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream gas pipelin
e linking Russia with Europe, German prosecutors charged Thursday, a move that complicates close relations between Kyiv and its key military backer Berlin.
The explosives attack in the Baltic Sea destroyed three of four seafloor pipelines of the major energy link to Germany and released record amounts of methane into the atmosphere.
In a statement detailing the charges brought against one suspect, German prosecutors said that he and other members of the Ukrainian military had acted “on the orders of state authorities in Ukraine.”
The case is awkward for Germany and Ukraine at a time Germany, Europe’s biggest economy, has emerged as the biggest military backer of Ukraine in its war against Russia.
The suspect in question was arrested in summer 2025 in Italy and extradited to Germany the following November, and was named at the time as
Serhii Kuznietsov
.
In Thursday’s statement prosecutors said he was “an officer in the Ukrainian army” and that following Russia…

Ukrainian “state authorities” ordered the destruction of the Nord Stream gas pipelines, German prosecutors said Thursday. “German prosecutors have accused Ukrainian ‘state authorities’ of ordering the 2022 explosives attack on the Nord Stream gas pipelines linking Russia with Europe,” British newspaper
The Guardian
reported.
The prosecutors accused a group of divers, led by a Ukrainian army officer, of carrying out the deep-sea operation near the Danish coast. The news comes days after a German court indicted a Ukrainian national for the pipeline blast. The
BBC
reported Thursday that a suspect, currently in German custody, has been “accused of leading a team of seven accomplices in an operation to destroy three of the four Nord Stream gas pipelines.”

German federal prosecutors on Thursday confirmed they had charged a Ukrainian national over the
2022 sabotage of the Nord Stream pipeline
, accusing him of acting as an accomplice in a war crime.
According to an indictment filed on June 30 and seen by POLITICO, prosecutors accuse a man known as Serhii K. of acting as an accomplice in a war crime by carrying out an "attack against civilian objects," causing an explosion, destroying structures and disrupting public utilities. The development brings one of Europe's most politically sensitive investigations a step closer to trial.
German prosecutors further allege that, as an officer in the Ukrainian army in 2022, he and other military personnel "acting on behalf of state bodies in Ukraine" developed a plan to destroy the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines in order to permanently halt Russian gas deliveries and prevent Moscow from using energy revenues to finance its war.

European investigators have taken a significant step forward in their probe into the sabotage of the Nord Stream gas pipelines, announcing the arrest of a Ukrainian national suspected of involvement in the September 2022 blasts that damaged key energy infrastructure in the Baltic Sea. The development marks the most notable arrest since authorities launched one of the continent’s most complex international investigations into what many officials have described as an unprecedented attack on Europe’s energy security.
The Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines, which were designed to transport natural gas from Russia to Germany, were severely damaged by underwater explosions in September 2022. The incident sent shockwaves across Europe, halting energy flows, fueling geopolitical tensions, and raising questions about the safety of critical infrastructure.
Until now, the investigation has been marked by secrecy, competing narratives, and international speculation. German prosecutors confirmed that a Ukrainian national was detained earlier this week on suspicion of playing a role in the logistics and execution of the sabota…
