Suspect in Nord Stream explosion arrested while working on film about the attack

Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyleOne of the main suspects in the 2022 Nord Stream pipeline explosions, Volodymyr Zhuravlev, has been arrested in Croatia under a European arrest warrant issued by German authorities seeking his extradition. Zhuravlev, an experienced Ukrainian scuba diver accused by German prosecutors of planting explosives on the Baltic Sea energy link, was reportedly detained while working as a consultant on the set of a Hollywood film which dramatises the gas pipeline attack. The suspect denies any involvement in the underwater sabotage, while the Ukrainian government has maintained it had no role in the incident that destroyed three of the four gas pipelines connecting Russia to Germany. Zhuravlev was previously detained in Poland in September 2025, but Polish authorities refused extradition to Germany, arguing that the destruction of Russian energy links could be viewed as a legitimate act of war. Polish prime minister Donald Tusk defended the refusal to extradite, stating that those responsible for building the Russian pipelines should be ashamed rather than those who disabled infrastructure funding Moscow's invasion.
