Explosive devices have been neutralized at the port of Ust-Luga, the Investigative Committee has said
A tanker ship that arrived in Russia's Leningrad Region from the Belgian port of Antwerp had NATO-made magnetic mines attached to its hull, the Russian Investigative Committee has said.
A criminal case has been opened over an attempted terrorist attack on the gas tanker, the Arrhenius, the agency said in a statement on Monday.
Divers discovered "factory-produced naval magnetic mines manufactured in one of the NATO countries" on the hull when they inspected the vessel upon its arrival in the port of Ust-Luga, the statement read.
