Strait of Hormuz Move: Lithuania’s State Defence Council has approved sending up to 40 troops and civilian defence staff to an allied mission to secure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, with Seimas approval still required; the plan also includes possible logistical support and use of Lithuanian military infrastructure if the US asks. US-Iran Tensions: Trump signals he may revive a wider U.S. naval escort effort in the Gulf (“Project Freedom Plus”) after rejecting Iran’s ceasefire terms, while he says the ceasefire is “on life support.” Baltic Security Pressure: Latvia’s defence minister resigned after Ukrainian drones hit oil facilities, underscoring how drone spillovers are forcing faster air-defence upgrades. Ukraine Children Returns: A Brussels coalition event backed new coordination to recover abducted Ukrainian children, with fresh EU/UK/Canada sanctions tied to deportation and indoctrination. Eurovision in Vienna: The contest begins amid broadcaster boycotts over Israel’s participation, with Lithuania among the semi-finalists.
