This is stated in the article.
The theory is that explosives on NS1 were detonated because the failure of NS2 would have triggered an inspection of NS1 that would have revealed the previously planted explosives.
- ianburrell 4y agoNot mentioned in article, it also explains why the NS1 was blown up 17 hours later than NS2. Would expect coordinated attack to occur simultaneously. Also, it explains why NS2 leak was distance from NS1. If coordinated attack, would expect one ship to lay explosives on both pipelines close together.
