According to Wiesti.ru (propaganda media), a Russian portal controlled by the authorities, an air raid alert over a UFO threat was announced again in Lithuania – this time for the second time in a single night. The portal cites LRT, the Lithuanian public broadcaster, which in turn quotes the Lithuanian armed forces and the national crisis management centre; according to the quoted words of the centre's head, Wilmantas Vitkauskas, the object heading toward the border near Druskininkai was most likely a drone, and NATO fighter jets were scrambled in response to the alert. Kremlin propaganda on Wiesti.ru (propaganda media) presents these events in a sensational tone, which does not change the fact that the information it describes comes from official Lithuanian sources.
