Lithuania lodged a protest note to Russia over strikes on the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra and other culturally important sites in Ukraine. Deliberate destruction of the UNESCO World Heritage is a blatant violation of the 1954 Hague Convention. Such a war crime must not stay unpunished.
An 11th century Christian cathedral ablaze because it was deliberately targeted by followers of a wicked cult. "Tommy Robinson" and other far right accounts on here will be furious, just you wait...

On the Day of Mourning and Hope we remember tens of thousands of Lithuanians who were deported from their homes & endured immense suffering.
Their courage, resilience & faith in a free Lithuania continue to inspire us.
We honour their memory and reaffirm our pledge to freedom.
🕯️ 14. jūnijs. 15 443 lauzti likteņi.
1941. gada 14. jūnijā okupācijas režīms vienā naktī no mājām vardarbīgi izrāva vairāk nekā 5000 ģimeņu.
Skarbi fakti, ko nedrīkst aizmirst:
❗️Deportēti 15 443 cilvēki.
❗️15% no visiem izsūtītajiem bija bērni vecumā līdz 10 gadiem.
❗️Gandrīz 40% izsūtīto nekad neatgriezās – viņi gāja bojā badā, aukstumā un spaidu darbos.
Mūsu pienākums ir zināt un saprast savu vēsturi. Ne tikai piemiņas, bet mūsu valsts nākotnes vārdā.
The USSR regime claimed millions of innocent lives. The first mass deportation of Lithuanian residents took place on 14-19 June 1941. Around 17K innocent people were deported from Lithuania to Siberia – most of them were women & children. Many never returned home.
Incredible. Publishing what appears to be (if you care to read the "evidence") a totally legitimate US program, and even citing the risks of these being used as "Russian information campaigns", Tulsi Gabbard - the gift that kept giving - presents the Kremlin with yet one more information operation.
Read our investigation from 2025 where we presented evidence that the hybrid ops unit of GRU's 29155 came up with the whole "bio-labs" concept - and co-opted Tulsi into it. https://t.co/D8qdE38ahv
Lithuania is one of the largest providers of military aid to Ukraine on a per capita basis. Since the start of the war, Lithuania has provided more than 1 billion dollars in military aid, and total support for Ukraine exceeds 2 billion dollars. #TrustedAlly

Warmest congratulations to the people of the Hashemite Kingdom of #Jordan 🇯🇴 on the 80th anniversary of Independence! We wish you lasting prosperity and continued progress, and look forward to strengthening the close and friendly cooperation between our countries.
OTD in 1948, Soviet structures started the largest mass deportation in Lithuania. During the operation 'Vesna', ~40,000 people were deported – families and supporters of the 🇱🇹 Freedom fighters. Many lost their lives en route or died of slavish labour, deprivation and diseases.
