Croatia Backs Extradition in Nord Stream Case, Appeal Still Ahead

A Croatian court approved sending Ukrainian Volodymyr Zhuravlyov to Germany over the September 2022 Nord Stream pipeline explosions. Arrested in August in Pula, he was ordered surrendered on September 18, his lawyer said. The decision is not final and can be appealed, so timing is unclear. Germany points to Ukrainian involvement, which Kyiv denies.
