Poland shot down Russian drones that violated its airspace during overnight strikes on Ukraine. Prime Minister Donald Tusk confirmed it was the first time Russian drones were destroyed over NATO territory. He called it a “large-scale provocation” and said Poland worked with NATO pilots to neutralize the threat. Airports briefly closed and citizens received alerts to avoid drone debris. Ukraine said Russia launched 415 drones and over 40 missiles, with at least eight aimed at Poland. President Volodymyr Zelensky called it “a dangerous precedent for Europe” and urged a strong international response. Russia has not commented. (PC: BBC)
