Russian drone incursions suspected into Poland, breaching NATO airspace – Reuters
Reuters reported early Wednesday that Poland placed its air defenses on high alert after Ukraine’s Air Force warned of a suspected Russian drone incursion into Polish airspace, breaching the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) airspace.
Poland’s operational command said in a post on X: “Attention, on the night of September 9-10, 2025, the Russian Federation will carry out further massive strikes on facilities located on the territory of Ukraine. To ensure the safety of Polish airspace, the Operational Commander of the Polish Armed Forces has activated all necessary procedures.”
US Representative Joe Wilson also posted on X, noting that Russia had attacked Poland, a NATO member, using Iranian-made Shahed drones, calling it “an act of war” and urging US President Donald Trump to respond with mandatory sanctions on Russia.
Meanwhile, Polish Deputy Defence Minister Cezary Tomczyk confirmed that “an operation to neutralize objects that have violated and crossed the Polish border is underway over Poland.”
He added that “all polish services are on alert.’
