Lithuania orders shelters after detecting unidentified flying object

thestar.com.my —

Lithuania ordered residents in central and northern regions to seek shelter for about an hour on Sunday morning after detecting an unrecognized flying object, the army and national crisis management centre said. During the "red" air warning, NATO air police fighters were deployed and Kaunas airport was closed. Latvia issued a "yellow" air warning in border regions during the same period, citing a "possible threat." Ukrainian drones have repeatedly entered NATO airspace in the Baltic region recently, with Kyiv attributing the incidents to Russian signal jamming, raising concerns about the war spilling over NATO borders.
