An item reported that in the outer harbour of Helsingfors [Helsinki], Finland four mines exploded after striking rocks after the last storm (of 3rd January?). Until now no mine was sighted in the fairway. Large ships were to use the outer channel towards Arans Grund and from there using the ordinary channel leading to Helsingfors.
