Reading Time: 2 minutesLithuanian prosecutors said they uncovered a network of suspects who planned to carry out four terrorist attacks across Europe, using parcel services to send incendiary explosives hidden in everyday items.
A joint investigation team coordinated by Eurojust is working on the case, with law enforcement and intelligence agencies from Lithuania, Poland, the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Latvia, Estonia, the United States, and Canada.
The prosecutor’s office did not specify in its statement how many people were detained in Lithuania or other countries.
Fifteen suspects – citizens of Russia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Ukraine – have been charged so far.
Police searches in Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, and Estonia turned up more explosives hidden in canned food containers, along with detonators.
