Lithuania's Prime Minister Mindaugas Sinkevičius has initiated consultations with NATO to revise response algorithms, aiming to permit shooting down drones without visual confirmation. This move follows an incident where a drone with explosives entered Lithuanian airspace from Poland, causing damage. Under current procedures, a fighter jet can only engage after the pilot visually confirms the drone, even if detected by radar.
