Poland summons Russian envoy after 'unprecedented attack' on territory
Sep 11, 2025
Moscow [Russia], September 11: Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski has condemned the intrusion of more than a dozen drones into Polish airspace, calling it "an unprecedented attack not only on Polish territory, but also on NATO territory."
The charge d'affaires of the Russian Embassy was summoned on Wednesday afternoon to the Foreign Ministry in Warsaw, where he was handed a note of protest, Sikorski told reporters.
The Russian diplomat denied the drones were Russian. "If there had been an admission of guilt, that would have been progress, but we would prefer it if the Russians did not send any drones," Sikorski said. He dismissed the possibility of an accidental violation. "In the case of 19 drones, it is highly unlikely that it was a coincidence," he said.
Poland's air defence and security systems "functioned well," the minister noted.
