Lithuanian Defence Minister Robertas Kaunas announced that Ukrainian air defence specialists are expected to arrive in Lithuania within the next one to two weeks to assess Lithuania's air defence strategy. These specialists will provide insights, perspectives, and operational advice based on their battlefield experience. Ukrainian Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko called for closer coordination between Kyiv and NATO allies due to increased combat drone incursions over NATO’s eastern flank, underscoring the need for improved drone interception systems and a unified radar picture across the region. Lithuanian Prime Minister Inga Ruginienė emphasized prioritizing air defence investments as a top national security priority, restructuring defense priorities following regional threats, and valuing Ukrainian experts' contributions for preparing against potential threats. Recent regional events include drone incursions into NATO Baltic airspace and a Russian drone strike on a residential building in Romania.
