Poland scrambled fighter jets to protect its airspace on Friday as Ukraine was hit with a barrage of Russian missiles and drones.
The Polish Air Force said in a statement on X, formerly known as Twitter, that the jets were launched amid “intense long-range aviation activity” and missile strikes from Russia on Ukrainian territory.
Just days earlier, on March 24, a Russian cruise missile fired at western Ukraine entered NATO member Poland’s airspace, Warsaw’s military said.
