Residents were worried about the NATO aircraft, which was flying relatively low and chasing another aircraft.
On Thursday night, July 7, residents of the Lithuanian city of Klaipeda, located 50 km from the Russian border, saw military aircraft in the sky firing either rocket signals or heat traps. This was reported by the local Telegram channel.
As indicated, the unusual activity in the airspace has frightened the civilian population, as there are no military airports or airports in the city, and no exercises have been announced in the area.
After the Web turmoil, the mayor of the nearby city of Palanga, Sarunas Vaitkus, said it was military exercises after all.
“Residents were worried about NATO planes flying relatively low and chasing another plane. They found out that military exercises were taking place. It’s just amazing that no one said goodbye about them – not even the airport, or the police, or the local governments. People. now are very sensitive, the phone is red. Good evening, “he wrote on his Facebook page.
Recall that in June, Lithuania imposed restrictions on the transportation of sanctioned goods in the Kaliningrad region of the Russian Federation by rail and truck routes.
In Moscow, the blockade of Kaliningrad was called “an impudent trick of Vilnius.”
