Revolut IBAN

Hello,

a question for those with a Revolut account which I cannot confirm. If you have an account with Revolut, do they provide you an IBAN for Euro zone?
The IBAN is based in which country? My understanding is that they are based in Lituania for Europe and that the IBAN will be coming from there.
