They’re Russian and Belarusian nationals. Not Lithuanians of Russian descent. And it’s only a fraction of the Russian and Belarusian nationals in the country. So they must have a reason to deport them. They’ve probably been found spreading propaganda or have links to the Russian KGB.
And they are being deported back to their home country. Not being send to a interment camp. Every country does that with foreigners who are a threat to the national security.
The way I read the article was that all Belarussian and Russian applicants for renewals of visas / residency were rejected.
