Drone Crisis Diplomacy: EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is set to travel to Lithuania after Baltic states sounded alarms over drone incursions that sent residents to basements and shelters, with the visit aimed at tightening coordination and boosting shared defense funding and planning. NATO Readiness Pressure: NATO ministers in Sweden are preparing the July Ankara summit around higher defense spending, more industrial output, and sustained Ukraine support—while warning that Russia’s war and drone incidents are forcing faster, tougher adaptation. Baltic Security Drills: Britain staged large-scale NATO response exercises using a disused London Underground platform as a command center, reflecting how seriously the alliance is treating a possible Baltic attack scenario. Human Rights & Deportations: Ireland removed 34 Polish and Lithuanian men on criminality grounds via a charter flight—bringing the 2026 total under the Free Movement Directive to 88. Sports Spotlight: Lithuania’s Monika Paulikienė and Aine Raupelytė won the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour Nuvali Challenge women’s title, while Australia’s Thomas Hodges and Ben Hood booked the men’s final.
