NOW BLOW UP #2:

Russia is "extremely concerned" about the damage sustained by the Nord Stream 1 and 2 gas pipelines, the Kremlin said Tuesday. 

Three offshore lines of the Russia-built Nord Stream gas pipeline system sustained "unprecedented" damage, leaking gas into the Baltic Sea, pipeline operator Nord Stream AG said in a statement carried by Russian state agencies Tuesday. 

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said pressure in the gas pipeline has dropped significantly as a result of the three leaks and refused to rule out sabotage as a potential cause.
