Poland Mobilizes Jets To Secure Airspace As Western Ukraine Comes Under Intense Russian Strikes
"Polish and allied aircraft are operating in our airspace, while ground-based air defense and radar reconnaissance systems have been brought to the highest state of readiness,"
"Poland described the measures as "preventative" actions that were aimed at "securing the airspace and protecting citizens, especially in areas adjacent to the threatened region.""
"Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on October 5 that at least five people were killed, and 10 others were wounded in a "combined Russian attack," which involved "more than 50 missiles and about 500 drones.""
""Today, the Russians again hit our infrastructure, everything that ensures a normal life for people,""
Russia launched a new wave of aerial attacks across Ukraine, including strikes in the Lviv region near the Polish border, killing at least five people and wounding ten. Ukrainian officials reported the assault involved more than 50 missiles and roughly 500 drones, cutting electricity for tens of thousands and damaging buildings and infrastructure. Poland mobilized fighter planes, placed ground-based air defense and radar reconnaissance on highest readiness, and described the steps as preventative measures to secure airspace and protect citizens near threatened areas. NATO aircraft operated in Polish airspace as tensions along the border escalated.
