NextImg:Polish Air Force Engages Russian Drones; Key Polish Airport Shut For 'Unplanned Military Activity'

Poland placed its air defenses at the highest stage of alert early Wednesday after up to 10 Russian attack drones entered Polish airspace. Rzeszów Airport in eastern Poland has been closed due to “unplanned military activity related to ensuring state security,” according to an official Notice to Airmen (NOTAM). Rzeszów Airport serves as the hub for military resupply efforts supporting Ukraine.

There are reports on X that Polish Air Force fighters have engaged some of the Russian drones.

Reportedly, President Trump has diverted a planned motorcade to an unannounced location, rumored to be the Pentagon's operations center.

This event takes place in the context of a large-scale Russian drone attack on areas of Western Ukraine. I hesitate to call the areas targets because the Russians don't seem to quite understand the concept. It is more likely that the drones over Poland are simply lost rather than targeting Poland.

That said, this report, if it pans out, marks a huge escalation in the war. Dropping the occasional drone in Romania is just bad manners. Dropping ten or so into a country that is ready and eager to have a go at the Russians could turn out to make someone's days interesting. The most likely effect of this will be Poland and NATO extending an air defense zone over Western Ukraine.
