Drones shot down in eastern Poland in "unprecedented violation of Polish airspace" - TVP World News



Our main stories today:
• Poland shot down drones that entered its airspace during a widespread Russian attack on western Ukraine, with the NATO member calling the incursion "an act of aggression."

• Police and military units were placed on full alert in eastern Poland after repeated drone violations of Polish airspace during Russia’s overnight attacks on Ukraine, the Operational Command of the Armed Forces has reported.

• There is no reason to panic. Life will go on as normal. At this moment, there is no reason to introduce restrictions that would make citizens’ daily lives more difficult, said Polish PM Donald Tusk after drones violated Polish airspace.

The question is what will the fat orange slob do. He promised harsh sanctions, and will he back up NATO

I’ve been there- the Poles will fight like hell to keep the Russians out. We should give them access to more and better arms- but we need to be building for US at the moment. We are short of artillery shells, anti-tank rockets, and everything drone.

I don’t expect it to ever happen, but it’d be awfully funny if Joe Biden tweeted, “Russia didn’t dare do this when I was president, but Putin is now exploiting Trump’s weakness. #PeaceThroughStrength”
