"We will take the decision to shoot down flying objects when they violate our territory and fly over Poland there is absolutely no discussion about that, Tusk told a news conference. When we're dealing with situations that aren't entirely clear, such as the recent flight of Russian fighter jets over the Petrobaltic platform but without any violation, because these aren't our territorial waters you really need to think twice before deciding on actions that could trigger a very acute phase of conflict, he added."
"Tusk said that he would also need to be certain that Poland would not be alone if a conflict started to escalate, Reuters stressed. I also need to be absolutely certain... that all allies will treat this in exactly the same way as we do, he said."
"The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity, or ENISA, just said that the cyberattack that disrupted several European airports (11:45) has now been confirmed to be a ransomware attack."
Poland's prime minister stated that Poland will shoot down flying objects that violate Polish territory and traverse Polish airspace. The prime minister emphasized caution in situations that are not clearcut, citing a recent flight of Russian fighter jets over the Petrobaltic platform that did not breach territorial waters. The prime minister warned that actions with uncertain attribution could trigger an acute phase of conflict and said he would need assurance that allies would treat escalations the same way. The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity confirmed that a cyberattack disrupting several European airports has been identified as a ransomware attack.
