The police reported that several emails containing threats were received, some of which were in Russian. These communications included warnings that buildings would be mined and that explosions were scheduled to occur after a two-hour delay. By midday, the police department had received approximately 40 such reports.
Authorities confirmed that this information was undergoing thorough checking and analysis, and currently, no credible threat has been identified. Regarding the recent incidents involving schools, the police stated that such threatening letters are not merely for show, but indicate a more serious pattern. In response to these threats, the police advised that institutions responsible for security should conduct immediate sweeps of the premises.
Furthermore, they instructed that if any suspicious items are discovered, the number 112 must be called without delay. For comprehensive guidance on the appropriate actions to take after receiving a report concerning a potential explosive device, detailed instructions are available on the Lithuanian Emergency Preparedness website. These threats were first directed at Lithuanian schools on a Monday morning.
The police continue to monitor the situation and advise the public on safety protocols while the investigation into these threats remains active.
