Lithuania has officially transitioned to winter time, with clocks moved back by one hour, affecting all residents across the country. Meanwhile, economic pressures continue to manifest as Lithuanians are reportedly purchasing goods from neighboring countries at such a rapid pace that local stores are struggling to replenish their stock, primarily driven by significant price differences. In other domestic news, the government is planning to increase social benefits for hundreds of thousands of residents, aiming to provide greater support. The online news landscape has seen a shift, with 15min.lt now ranking as the most popular news portal, surpassing its competitor Delfi. Additionally, a Ukrainian woman, Sofija, has garnered recognition in Panevėžys for her efforts in learning Lithuanian and subsequently teaching it to her compatriots. Discussions are also ongoing among historians regarding the active search for the remains of Vytautas the Great, a pivotal figure in Lithuanian history. On the international front, Lithuanian media is closely monitoring developments in the war in Ukraine, including Elon Musk's accusations against Ukraine regarding Starlink usage, and warnings from 'The Guardian' about potential plans of Donald Trump. Reports also cover internal threats faced by the Kremlin elite, early elections in Serbia, and the commencement of presidential elections in Bulgaria amidst economic hardship.
