Lithuania faces potential infiltration by Belarusian armed forces.
Border Clash with Foreign Officers
Last night, a potential border incident was reported as three foreign border guards entered Lithuanian territory in the Vilnius district, according to the Lithuanian State Border Guard Service and LRT.
These guards hailed from the neighboring country of Belarus, having been spotted sauntering along the boundary line on their side. This area, belonging to Lithuania, is defined by a central polygonometric pillar with state border signs on both sides.
To deter unlawful immigration, a physical barrier exists mere meters from the border - a fence fortified with barbed wire. Initial investigations hint that the Belarusian border guards may have sneaked about two meters into Lithuanian territory, but quickly retreated back to their side.
The Vilnius Border Regiment is currently gathering facts, sorting out the details, and is considering launching a preliminary inquiry into this suspected illegal border crossing.
