US EditionAnand says Canada stands with Poland and Ukraine after Russian drone incursions
- On September 9-10, Russian drones entered Polish airspace, prompting NATO to scramble jets and shoot down several drones near Poland amid a Russian air attack on Ukraine.
- This drone incursion occurred amid escalating tensions from Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine and Russia preparing large-scale military exercises in Belarus near Poland.
- Poland invoked Article 4 of NATO, leading the alliance's main political body to convene while Poland and Western leaders condemned the incursion and Moscow denied responsibility.
- President Donald Trump publicly condemned the violation, promised continued support for Poland, planned talks with Polish President Karol Nawrocki, and stated readiness to impose new sanctions on Moscow.
- The incident marked the first time NATO engaged Russian military assets in a NATO member's airspace since 2022, raising fears of escalation but also calls for calm and measured responses.
