Tiny Danish island hits world headlines.

A report in Der Spiegel claims that a six-person crew
took a yacht from Rostock to Christiansø
in order to sabotage the Nordstream 2 pipeline
running nearby from Russia to Germany.

I spent part of the harsh winter of 1962-3,
and part of the summers of 1963 and 1965 on the island,
which is half a mile long by a quarter of a mile wide,
off the east coast of Bornholm.  The sea froze. 

In summer it is a holiday destination for day-trippers.
