"Russian" drones in Lithuania turn out to be cigarette smugglers

Alleged "Russian Drones" that caused a shut down of Lithuania airports and the scrambling of NATO fighter jets over this past weekend, turned out to be hot-air balloons carrying cartons of cigarettes!
Cigarette smugglers used eleven balloons to send cartons containing 18,000 packs of cigarettes into Lithuania to get around the exorbitant taxes on tobacco in that country.
Russia had nothing to do with it. But Lithuania is so utterly obsessed with "Russia, Russia, Russia" they have now made fools of themselves in front of the entire world.
