These obstacles are designed to block heavy vehicles, proving highly effective in slowing down enemy advances.

According to military sources, the iron barriers have been proven as an effective solution to prevent the movement of tanks and other armored vehicles, forcing the enemy to slow down and making them more vulnerable to counterattacks.

If necessary, Lithuanian forces are prepared to complement these barriers with additional firepower, ensuring a swift and decisive response to any imminent threat. The initiative is part of Lithuania’s broader efforts to strengthen its defenses in the region, which has become strategically important amid rising tensions in the Baltic.

These measures aim to protect the country’s territorial integrity and strengthen its position within NATO, of which Lithuania is an active member, with a strong commitment to securing the alliance’s eastern border.
