VILNIUS, Lithuania (AP) — A DHL cargo plane has crashed on approach to an airport in Lithuania’s capital and skidded into a nearby house, killing a Spanish crew member. The cause of the crash early Monday is under investigation. Lithuania’s airport authority identified the aircraft as a DHL cargo plane arriving from Leipzig, Germany. Lithuanian officials acknowledge that one line of inquiry will look at any Russian involvement but stress there is no evidence yet. Western governments suspect that Russian intelligence is carrying out sabotage in retaliation for their support for Ukraine. In July two incendiary devices caught fire in packages destined for cargo planes, one in Germany, the other in the U.K.
