Poland scrambled aircraft to protect its airspace on Wednesday as Russian missiles and drones targeted Ukraine’s western city of Lviv.
The Polish Air Force said in a statement on X, formerly Twitter, that the aircraft were launched as Russia carried out strikes in Ukraine’s western territory.
“This has been another very tense night for the entire Polish air defense system due to the observed activity of Russian long-range aircraft,” the Polish Armed Forces Operational Command (DORSZ) said.
“The last such increased activity of Russian long-range aviation was recorded on the night of 1 to 2 September this year.”
It added: “We have activated all necessary procedures to ensure the safety of Polish airspace and are constantly monitoring the situation.”
Many victims, including a 10 year old boy as the US continues forbidding Ukraine to stop the massacres.
