In a number of voivodeships, reservists were given only 6 hours to report.

Due to the incursion of Russian drones into  Polish airspace, an accelerated call-up of reservists for territorial defense was announced in 10 voivodeships.

In particular, in the Podlaskie, Masovian, Lublin and Podkarpacie voivodeships, reservists must report to perform tasks within 6 hours. 

And in the Pomeranian, Warmian-Masurian, Kuyavian-Pomeranian, Łódź, Świętokrzyskie and Lesser Poland voivodeships, reservists were given 12 hours to report.

According to monitors, more than 10 Russian “Shaheeds” attacked Poland that night. Poland announced an unprecedented violation of its airspace.

Night attack on Poland

Polish authorities confirmed that the countries’ militaries repelled the air attack. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said he had told NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte about the nighttime attack on Poland. 

It is noteworthy that neither the Armed Forces nor Tusk himself said that Russian drones violated their country’s airspace.

The military leadership announced a military operation at night and urged Poles to stay home. The armed forces noted that the Podlaskie, Masovian, and Lublin voivodeships were in the greatest danger.

This is not the first time that Poland has sent its military aircraft into the sky due to Russian attacks on Ukraine. But the difference is that previously, only isolated Russian drones flew into Polish territory, mostly in border areas.
