Lithuania is considering a partial airspace closure to search for a suspicious drone that entered from Belarus as it strengthens its air defenses.

Lithuanian Defense Minister Dovile Sakaliene has announced that a suspicious drone has entered Lithuanian airspace and the search continues. Although the rapid closure of certain air sections is difficult due to the presence of civilian objects, the authorities are working on a possible restriction. Lithuania is strengthening its air defense, purchasing essential equipment and warning of increased risks from military exercises in Belarus.
