A Ukrainian man arrested in connection with the 2022 Nord Stream bombing was detained while working on a Hollywood movie about the gas pipeline attack starring Adrien Brody and Sean Penn, a report said Thursday.
Police in Pula, Croatia arrested Volodymyr Zhuravlyov on Wednesday under a European arrest warrant put out by Germany, which is seeking his extradition.
German prosecutors say Zhuravlyov is a trained diver and accuse him of helping plant explosives on the Baltic Sea energy link between Russia and Germany that destroyed three of the four pipelines in 2022.
