In this way, we are sending a signal to Belarus that no hybrid attacks will be tolerated here, and we will take the strictest measures to stop them,” she emphasized. In addition, according to the Prime Minister, since Monday, the army has been taking “all necessary measures” to neutralize the bullets that flew in, including the use of kinetic means to shoot them down. Ruginene also added that Lithuania can now track the direction of weather balls. “We have already begun to record not only the number of bullets, but also to carefully observe the direction of their flight. This will allow us to coordinate actions more precisely and regulate the operations of airports accordingly,” she said.
