Energy crisis in the UK: Britons are preparing for an emergency

As recently as the summer, the British believed that the energy crisis in Europe would affect them financially at best. Now there is talk of scheduled three-hour blackouts in January and February. Even the real thing is being played out: a week-long power outage across the country.

The code word is “Operation Yarrow”. Behind this, according to the British “Guardian” this week, is the disaster planning in the event that the British could be completely switched off in winter. The British Ministry of Defense and NATO consider a Russian act of sabotage on the Langeled pipeline, which brings Norwegian gas to Great Britain, to be so likely that the government is already rehearsing an emergency.
