===BEGIN QUOTE==
The United States warned the federal government weeks ago of possible attacks on gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea. According to information from SPIEGEL, a corresponding tip from the US secret service CIA was received in Berlin in the summer.
Several people familiar with the matter confirmed this. A government spokesman said that "as a matter of principle, one does not take a public position on matters relating to any intelligence findings or activities of the intelligence services".
Immense pressure drop
In fact, according to SPIEGEL information, the day after incidents became known in the Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines leading from Russia to Germany, the federal government is assuming a targeted attack.
On Monday it became known that there had been an immense drop in pressure in both gas lines. It is now clear that gas is leaking from the pipelines in large quantities. ...
According to SPIEGEL research, seismic activity was measured in the area of the Nord Stream 1 leak. Experts were quoted in the Scandinavian media as saying that these could only have come from an explosion.
