Russian drones over Poland no reason to panic and start a war

“It seems unlikely that the handful of Russian drones that entered Polish air space did so accidentally. There have been previous incidents, but they involved individual drones very close to the Ukrainian border. Yesterday there were over a dozen, according to reports, with debris landing in several cities, including hitting one house, after NATO was scrambled to shoot them down. It is appropriate therefore that under Article 4 of the NATO Treaty, NATO members consulted over this and responded. This was however not an ‘attack.’ None of the drones hit a significant target, or seem to have been intended to do so.” (09/10/25)
