NATO jets down drone in Lithuanian airspace; Russian frigate fired flares at Danish military helicopter.

NATO fighter jets shot down a drone that entered Lithuanian airspace overnight, a day after NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte warned that strikes near alliance territory would increase support for Kyiv. This incident follows a Russian frigate firing two flares towards a Danish military helicopter in international waters off Denmark's coast on Monday, narrowly missing the aircraft. These events highlight heightened military tensions between Russia and NATO members in the Baltic region.
