Lithuania’s capital airport on Wednesday ‌suspended flights due to a drone warning, the ​country’s national crisis ​management centre said.

The alert ⁠was issued in response ​to a drone ​in neighbouring Belarus that was seen flying towards Lithuania, the ​centre said, adding ​that the drone’s origin had ‌not ⁠been confirmed.

A NATO fighter jet on Tuesday shot down a suspected Ukrainian ​drone ​over ⁠Estonia, the Baltic country said, the ​latest in a ​series ⁠of airspace violations in the region amid ⁠frequent ​Ukrainian attacks ​on neighbouring Russia.
