Kosiniak-Kamysz says Russian drones could reach Poland if Ukraine lacks interceptors

Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz told parliament that insufficient support for Ukraine's air defenses directly raises the security risk to Poland, after fighter jets were again scrambled in response to Russian attacks near the border. He argued that missiles and drones falling near Polish territory are no longer isolated incidents but a deliberate pattern.

He also accused opposition figures, naming Confederation party leader Sławomir Mentzen, of serving Russian interests by criticizing Ukraine and Poland's defense preparedness. Kosiniak-Kamysz argued that continued shipments of air-defense systems and ammunition to Ukraine are what actually keep Russian drones from reaching Polish soil.

Separately, Warsaw is preparing a roughly €50 million aid package for Ukraine focused on air defense, reportedly including Patriot interceptor missiles, though the exact number remains classified. Poland reported no airspace violations during its most recent alert.
