WorldLithuanian defense minister warns Russia may use captured Ukrainian drones to strike Baltic countries

Lithuanian Defense Minister Robertas Kaunas says Russia may be considering attacks on critical infrastructure in the Baltic region using captured Ukrainian drones, seeking to undermine trust in Ukraine and weaken NATO support for Kyiv. He says there is currently no “direct threat.” Lithuanian intelligence officials say Moscow may mistakenly believe Baltic countries have allowed Ukraine to use their airspace for strikes on Russia.
