As part of a broader civil defense initiative, Lithuania is preparing a national evacuation plan while also implementing conscription for school graduates.
Lithuania’s government is developing a national mass evacuation plan to be completed by early October, reports the country’s national broadcaster LRT.
The heightened focus on civil defense in the Baltic region comes against the backdrop of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and increased tensions with Moscow.
