Russia says it had no plans to target Poland as Nato condemns 'reckless' drone incursions



  • Prime Minister Donald Tusk says Poland is at its closest to open conflict since World War Two

  • He says up to four of 19 Russian drones were shot down by Polish and Nato aircraft, marking the first time Russian drones have been shot down over the territory of a Nato country

  • Poland's interior ministry says seven drones and the remains of an unidentified object have been found so far

  • The key question is whether this was a deliberate act by the Kremlin to test Nato's response, writes security correspondent Frank Gardner

  • The Kremlin says it won't comment. Earlier, a Russian diplomat in Poland rejected claims of drones in Polish airspace, state media reports

  • The drones that entered Poland were part of the latest major aerial attack on Ukraine, where Russia launched 415 drones overnight - President Volodymyr Zelensky calls it an "extremely dangerous precedent for Europe"
