Poland Intercepts Russian Drones Following ‘Unprecedented Airspace Violation’
Poland’s air defense forces have successfully intercepted and shot down several Russian drones after what Warsaw has described as an ‘unprecedented airspace violation.’ The incident marks a significant escalation in regional tensions, coming just days after intense Russian missile strikes targeted Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the September 7, 2025, attacks on Kyiv’s main government building as ‘ruthless’ and vowed an ‘appropriate response.’ European leaders, including UK Prime Minister Starmer and French President Macron, have since rallied in support of Ukraine, accusing Russia of deepening its ‘logic of war and terror.’ Reports indicate four people, including an infant, were killed and over 44 injured in the Kyiv strikes, which also hit residential buildings.
The drone interception by Poland underscores the growing concerns over the spillover effects of the ongoing conflict. This development follows recent warnings from Russian President Vladimir Putin against the deployment of peacekeeping troops to Ukraine after any ceasefire agreement, further highlighting the volatile geopolitical climate.
