looks like someone finally blew them up

Your linked article talks about NS1.

The GP article talks about NS2.

> Nord Stream 2 pipeline pressure collapses mysteriously overnight

Did pressure "mysteriously" drop in both NS1 and NS2 or does one of these news outlets have their wires crossed?

It sure looks like both had an accident.

There is no need to guess:

"There will be no longer a Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it."

Biden said this on February 7th. On the 22nd the German Chancellor suspended it's certification.

There's no reason to sabatoge the pipeline when a year before it was Biden who waived sanctions on it. What changed both country's stance was the invasion. Germany became fully onboard with shutting it down after the Ukraine invasion.

Only Russia has anything to gain from such destruction (if it proves to be sabatoge) at this point by keeping the pressure on Europe's energy situation.

The pipeline was never in use, but it was filled with 300 million cubic metres of gas, which presumably could have been pumped out and used to at least some degree, even if more gas was not being pumped into the pipeline.
