Lithuania Issues Red Alert as Unidentified Drone Incidents Prompt Security Concerns
Lithuania has declared a red alert and urged residents to seek shelter following multiple incidents involving unidentified flying objects, suspected to be drones, entering its airspace. Ukrainian officials have apologized after one such drone crashed and damaged a moving car in northern Lithuania, with suggestions that Russian electronic warfare systems may have played a role in the incidents. NATO fighter jets have been scrambled in response to the airborne threat, and debris from the drones has been discovered. Amidst the heightened security, Kaunas Airport was temporarily closed due to the alerts, with ongoing discussions about a joint investigation with Poland into the matter.
