According to the operational command, the deployed forces and resources have returned to standard operational activities.
“This was another night
of heightened readiness for Polish and allied systems and intensive service by
soldiers of the Polish Armed Forces, who are continuously monitoring the situation in Ukrainian territory and remain in constant readiness to ensure the security of Polish airspace,” explained the operational command in a statement on X.
According to earlier reports, the Russian Federation engaged in
intense long-range aviation activity overnight from Thursday to Friday, which included missile strikes on targets in Ukrainian territory.
The operational command stated that, as a result,
Polish and allied aircraft were operating in Polish airspace, which may be associated with an increased level of noise, especially in the southeastern area of the country.
“All necessary procedures aimed at ensuring the security of Polish airspace have been activated, and the Operational Command of the Armed Forces is monitoring the situation continuously,” assured the command.
A
Russian cruise missile, intended for Ukraine, entered Polish airspace, lingering for 39 seconds last week on Sunday. The defense minister affirmed that Polish authorities would have intercepted the missile if there had been any indication of a threat to Polish territory.
