"Five European nations France, Poland, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Italy (the E5 nations) have launched a new programme to develop low-cost air defence systems and autonomous drones. Announced on Friday, the initiative leverages Ukrainian expertise from four years of war against Russia, forming part of wider European efforts to bolster border security, including a proposed "drone wall" to detect and intercept drones violating airspace. Both Moscow and Kyiv possess advanced drone warfare capabilities, with battlefield innovations from the conflict reshaping modern tactics."

Five European nations — France, Poland, Germany, the United Kingdom and Italy — have launched a programme to develop low-cost air defence systems and autonomous drones. The initiative leverages Ukrainian expertise gained from four years of war against Russia and forms part of wider European efforts to bolster border security, including a proposed "drone wall" to detect and intercept drones violating airspace. Both Moscow and Kyiv possess advanced drone warfare capabilities, with battlefield innovations from the conflict reshaping modern tactics. Poland already collaborates with Ukraine on drone technology through joint training and manufacturing projects. These efforts follow incidents of rogue drones testing Europe's borders and airports, with Russia blamed for some incursions despite denials.
