Russian official news agencies quoted the head of the Belarusian Security Service on Thursday as saying that an attack on the capital, Minsk, with drones launched from Lithuania had been thwarted.
“The State Security Committee, in cooperation with colleagues from other law enforcement agencies, has recently implemented a number of stringent security measures, which made it possible to prevent strikes by combat drones from the territory of Lithuania on targets in Minsk and its environs.
In a statement in response, the Lithuanian army spokesman said that the army had not carried out any action against other countries.
Belarus is an ally of Russia.
