A NATO aircraft shot down a drone that entered Lithuanian airspace from Belarus on 13 September, NATO officials said, confirming the incident in reports on 15 September. The interception occurred near Vilnius and prompted the temporary closure of the city’s airport.

Lithuanian authorities had earlier reported that NATO jets had engaged the intruding drone, citing regional security concerns amid the war in Ukraine. They later clarified that a radar alert that led to the airport shutdown and the deployment of a NATO fighter jet was in fact caused by a flock of birds.
