Two migrants attempted to enter Lithuania from Belarus through a large drainage pipe beneath a stream but abandoned the plan after spotting border guards approaching.
The incident occurred in Lithuania’s Druskininkai District, where a border surveillance system detected two people approaching from the Belarusian side.
According to Lithuania’s State Border Guard Service, the border in the area is secured with a barbed-wire fence. However, a pipe carrying the Kusenka Stream into Lake Latežeris passes beneath the barrier.
The pipe is approximately 2.8 meters in diameter and begins about one meter from Belarusian territory before crossing under the fence. Authorities have installed strong, lockable metal gates at its outlet on the Lithuanian side to prevent unauthorized crossings.
The two migrants entered the stream from Belarus and climbed inside the pipe. They were carrying metal shears, which they apparently intended to use to cut through the gates and gain access to Lithuania.
However, border surveillance cameras detected their movements, prompting guards to head to the location.
When the migrants heard a vehicle approaching, they climbed out of the pipe and returned to Belarus without completing the crossing.
