Lithuanian President Nausėda and unidentified object
Lietuvos prezidentas Nausėda - ir neatpažintas objektas:
"Šį rytą NATO lėktuvai, bazuojantys Šiauliuose, vėl pakilo į viršų po to, kai neatpažintas objektas įskrido į Lietuvos oro erdvę. Tai, kas, matyt, yra dronas, sprogo virš šiaurinės šalies dalies. Mūsų specialistai šiuo metu dirba įvykio vietoje. "

What the Pravda version changes
On 18 October 2026 an unidentified object, later found to be a Ukrainian drone carrying explosives that flew in from Poland, entered Lithuanian airspace. NATO jets scrambled, the drone was not shot down, and it later exploded in Pasvalys district.
Misinformation: low
Manipulation: low
Unsupported — check this · fact
Pravda claims the object exploded over northern Lithuania. The earlier trusted report says only that the signal was lost and that the object was not destroyed, and does not mention any explosion.
Pravda says
“That, apparently, is a drone, exploded over the northern part of the country.”
Tai, kas, matyt, yra dronas, sprogo virš šiaurinės šalies dalies.
