The Druzhba pipeline transports oil via Belarus to the EU.
If I understand right, this was the only remaining open pipeline from Russia to Europe. This is big news, isn't it? Or am I missing something?

There is a pipeline going to Ventspils in Latvia, which should not be hit by this at all. That is mainly used to export oil and I am not sure the Latvian stopped it. At least I can not find any info on it.
Is germany still getting natural gas from it?
Druzhba is an oil pipeline, delivery to Germany amongst other eastern european countries
Forced closure of that pipeline would probably impact Hungary the most, and maybe Serbia
Probably not anymore
Germany is not importing natural gas directly from Russia for two years now. This is an oil pipeline and I believe it is still used to sell Kazakh oil to Germany, but that is relativly minor.
