New and shocking details have emerged in the ongoing church abuse scandal, with exclusive investigations revealing messages from priests and detailed testimonies from alleged victims. This comes as the European Swimming Championships have begun, featuring prominent Lithuanian athletes, and the Kaunas Book Fair is hosting its largest literature festival to date.
Economically, the country is grappling with pressures from rapid wage growth straining typical companies, and retailers are reporting a significant drop in sales for certain products. Meanwhile, the Financial Crime Investigation Service successfully thwarted a multi-million euro fraud scheme, and a case involving entrepreneurs accused of causing 1 million euros in damages has been forwarded to court.
Culturally, beyond the book fair, Lithuanians also witnessed a partial solar eclipse across the country, with a Lithuanian astronomer capturing a rare total solar eclipse unseen in Spain for over a century.
