A British cargo vessel detained at Kotka harbour has been found to be carrying a shipment of American-made Patriot missiles. According to information received by YLE, the missile shipment originated in Germany and is destined for South Korea. Onboard the ship are 69 of the missiles with their explosive warheads and propelling charges.

The National Bureau of Investigation confirmed Wednesday afternoon that the missiles are on-board the ship.

Officials stopped the M/S Thor Liberty last week as its cargo of explosives had been stored incorrectly. The ship is carrying 160 tonnes of the explosive nitroguanidine. The material is in 25 kg packages. Because of the characteristics of nitroguanidine, the material should be carried in shipping containers.

In the course in inspection, it was aslo found that the cargo included a shipment of military missiles.

An investigation was launched and it was determined that while not contraband, the proper transit permits for the shipment are inadequate or missing.

The incident is now being handled by Finnish Customs as a possible violation of laws regulating the imports of military materials. Customs has requested the Defense Forces for assistance in impounding the missiles until their origin and destination can be confirmed.

环球网记者李宗泽报道，美联社12月21日消息说，芬兰警方称在一艘计划驶往中国上海的货船上发现69枚地对空“爱国者”导弹。

据芬兰国家调查局介绍，上述船只悬挂的是英国国旗，名为M/S Thor Liberty，于12月15日从德国北部驶出，之后停靠在芬兰的一个港口装载货物。

芬兰国家调查局21日说，由于在船内发现用于制造炸药的物质，所以扣押了这艘船。目前，该国警方及海关人员正在调查此事，是否违反了芬兰有关武器贸易的法律。
