Poland warns Russia is planning drone or rocket strikes on NATO territory
Tusk said intelligence shows Russia may use drones and missiles to test NATO’s response and weaken allied unity, with 300 Ukrainian rail locomotives destroyed.
- On Thursday, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned parliament that intelligence suggests Russia plans hybrid drone and missile strikes against countries supporting Ukraine to weaken NATO cohesion.
- European countries suspect Moscow orchestrated recent sabotage to pressure allies helping Kyiv, though the Kremlin has vigorously denied involvement; Poland has served as a hub for Western military support since Russia's 2022 invasion.
- Tusk stated Moscow might frame potential strikes as 'accidental' to paralyze NATO's response, warning these could coincide with political shifts where parties like AfD and National Rally increasingly advocate for peace over supporting Ukraine.
- Polish Defence Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz confirmed Poland is reinforcing air defence and rapid response systems; Tusk plans to visit Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday to discuss the Anti-Ballistic Missile Coalition.
- Separately, President Donald Trump announced Thursday that progress continues toward establishing an Army base in Poland, crediting 'the bold leadership' of Polish President Karol Nawrocki for the historic step.
