Lithuania Issues Air Alerts Over Unknown Flying Object and Geese Flock

Lithuania raised air alerts on September 13, 2026, at 13:16 UTC, citing an unknown flying object and a flock of geese. The country scrambled fighter jets in response, leading to the suspension of civilian flights. Infobae reported the alerts as stemming from both an unidentified aerial object and a geese flock. Ukrainska Pravda, however, stated that the alerts were due to a bird flock, with fighter jets deployed and flights suspended. The two sources differ on the cause of the alerts, with one mentioning an unknown flying object and the other focusing solely on the geese.
