Recovery Operations Continue After U.S. Soldiers Found Dead in Lithuania

In a tragic development, the bodies of three out of four missing U.S. Army soldiers have been recovered from a swamp in Lithuania, where their armored vehicle sank during training exercises. The search for the fourth soldier continues as U.S. military and recovery teams work diligently to navigate the challenging boggy terrain. The vehicle, which weighed 70 tons, was submerged more than 16 feet deep in the peat bog. Officials have confirmed that the soldiers were conducting routine training when the incident occurred, which has drawn attention not only from local authorities but also from NATO leadership. The recovery operations are ongoing, with specialized teams being deployed to assist in the search for the remaining serviceman.
