Il centro nevralgico delle operazioni si troverebbe a Kaliningrad, l’exclave russa tra Polonia e Lituania. Le autorità lituane hanno detto a Reuters che Mosca avrebbe installato lì 36 antenne per lo spoofing e il disturbo di segnali radio. Nel 2025 le antenne erano solo tre

Drones straying and interference, Russia is using “electronic warfare” against Europe and NATO.

The nerve center of the operations would be in Kaliningrad, the Russian exclave between Poland and Lithuania. Lithuanian authorities told Reuters that Moscow would install 36 antennas there for spoofing and jamming radio signals. In 2025, the antennas were only three.

Il Fatto Quotidiano: Droni sconfinati in Lituania, il governo: “I rifugi antierei restino aperti 24 ore su 24”

Sono ancora in corso le ricerche del drone sconfinato il 20 maggio nella regione sudorientale della Lituania e in conseguenza del quale la popolazione della contea di Vilnius era stata invitata a raggiungere i rifugi antiaerei. E alla luce di quanto accaduto, la prima ministra lituana, Inga Ruginiene, ha annunciato, al termine della seduta del Consiglio supremo della Difesa, che l’esecutivo intende chiedere alle amministrazioni provinciali del Paese di provvedere all’apertura 24 ore su 24 dei bunker del Paese. Secondo Ruginiene, il provvedimento è reso necessario dalla possibile intensificazione degli sconfinamenti di droni ucraini nel territorio lituano, proprio come accaduto il 20 maggio. La premier ha inoltre annunciato che i radar presenti in Lituania saranno integrati in un sistema comune in grado di controllare unitariamente lo spazio aereo del Paese entro la fine dell’estate di quest’anno.

Drones everywhere in Lithuania, the government: “Air raid shelters remain open 24/7”

Research is still ongoing into the unmanned drone that crossed into Lithuania on May 20th, as a result of which the population of the Vilnius County had been invited to take shelter in anti-aircraft shelters. And in light of what happened, Lithuanian Prime Minister Inga Ruginiene, at the end of the Supreme Defence Council session, announced that the executive intends to ask the country’s provincial administrations to ensure the 24/7 operation of the country’s bunkers. According to Ruginiene, this measure is necessary due to the possible intensification of Ukrainian drone incursions into Lithuanian territory, as occurred on May 20th. The Prime Minister also announced that the radars in Lithuania will be integrated into a common system capable of controlling the country’s airspace as a whole by the end of this summer.

Ko?! Gang
Just some aggressive foods and drinks in my sketchbook. I don't know who has beef with whom, and who gave meatball a black (blue) eye. They're saying they're not snitches, so here we are. This is a pun in Lithuanian, as all these names start with "Ko...", and "Ko?" is a rough street style question, like "What?" but really aggressive.

I post a little bit more of sketches on my ko-fi, you can follow me there:
