Lithuania gas explosion blamed on technical malfunction
IndependentAPR 2023
Though the Lithuanian government will conduct a thorough investigation into any and all possible causes of this explosion, it so far looks to have been technical in nature and not an outside attack. Investigators will also look into the potential connection between the blast and the recent maintenance work the pipeline had undergone.
With the investigation in its infancy, no conclusions should be drawn as to what caused this explosion, especially after the Nord Stream pipeline investigation conducted by Sweden found traces of explosive material at the site of that gas leak. After quickly blaming Russia for that incident, the mainstream narrative eventually had to backtrack, which is why we must wait for all the facts regarding this case.
