1. Lithuania says Vilnius Starlink site hit in failed Molotov attack, links it to Ukraine-related sabotage

   Lithuania's prime minister said that at about 2 am Sunday a Delska-related site storing Starlink equipment in the Aukštieji Paneriai area of Vilnius was attacked with Molotov cocktails and accelerant; security put out the fire, antennas did not burn and a control unit was lightly scorched. The national crisis-management centre director said the incident was sabotage and, with earlier Starlink-site attacks in Bulgaria and Poland, was seen as aimed at disrupting Ukraine's military communications; a presidential national-security adviser said Russia was 'very likely' involved. Police said on Monday suspects were still at large; the government raised alert levels at more than 15 critical infrastructure sites.
