Poland and Latvia have moved to restrict parts of their airspace following a night of Russian drone incursions, an incident that has escalated tensions within NATO’s eastern flank. Both governments confirmed the measures after multiple drones crossed into Polish territory.

BRUSSELS/WARSAW >> NATO announced plans to beef up the defense of Europe’s eastern flank today, two days after Poland shot down drones that had violated its airspace in the first known action of its kind by a member of the Western alliance during Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Russia's firing of drones over Poland is "absolutely unacceptable", the French foreign minister said Friday, adding that the Russian ambassador would be summoned over the incident in the latest stern rebuke from European and NATO allies. Wednesday’s multiple Russian drone strike on Polish soil rattled Europe’s leaders who saw it as a deliberate provocation, but the incident was also likely a test of NATO's defences, says France 24's SHirli Sitbon.
