NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte reported that four U.S. soldiers who went missing during training in Lithuania have died. However, Rutte stated that he does not yet have information about the details of the incident.
A U.S. official, who wished to remain anonymous, described the situation only as "the soldiers were involved in a training accident" and refrained from commenting on the current status of the soldiers.
Rutte, who is in Warsaw, said, "This is still very new news and we do not know the details. It is truly a tragic situation, and our thoughts are with the families and loved ones of the soldiers."
In a statement from the U.S. Army Europe and Africa Public Affairs Office in Wiesbaden, Germany, it was confirmed that the soldiers went missing during planned tactical training.
According to a report by Lithuanian state television LRT, four U.S. soldiers and their vehicles went missing during an exercise at the General Silvestras Zukauskas training area in the town of Pabrade, located about 10 km from the Belarus border, on Tuesday afternoon.
The Baltic states of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia are NATO member countries. These countries have had tense relations with Belarus's key ally, Russia, since gaining independence from the Soviet Union in 1990.
Relations worsened further with Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda has emerged as one of the strongest supporters of Ukraine in its struggle against Russia.
