Latvia, Lithuania warn of threat in airspace near Belarus

Latvia and Lithuania warned of an airspace threat near Belarus on Tuesday, November 10. Residents in two Latvian regions bordering Russia and Belarus were told to take shelter, and Latvia activated interceptor drones and air-defence units, the Latvian army said. NATO fighters were also scrambled after an object in Belarus was reported flying towards the Baltic states, Lithuania’s crisis management centre said. The incidents come amid repeated concerns over drones straying from the war in Ukraine.
