NATO launched the "Baltic Sentry" mission to enhance ship surveillance in the Baltic Sea, deploying patrol aircraft, warships, and drones in response to last year's damage to critical undersea cables.
NATO chief Mark Rutte emphasized increased monitoring of Russia's "shadow fleet," which transports embargoed oil, though Russia was not directly blamed for the cable damage.
