All NATO eastern flank countries are revising crisis response protocols for medical facilities, conducting training, purchasing helmets and body armor, and even relocating operating rooms underground, according to Politico. The Santaros Clinics University Hospital in Vilnius, located just 50 km from the EU’s external border with Belarus, is expanding its underground infrastructure, shelters, helipads, and autonomous systems that will allow it to operate even during power or water outages. Meanwhile, in Estonia, in addition to body armor for ambulance crews, satellite phones will be distributed to maintain communication if conventional networks fail. Plans are also in place to establish an independent internet network if needed.
