According to inkorr.com: Poland plans to increase the number of its military personnel on the eastern border to 40,000 due to the 'Zapad-2025' exercises being conducted by Russia together with Belarus.

“This is necessary for effective response to the situation”
, - stated Polish Deputy Minister of Defense Cezary Tomczyk. Previously, only 10,000 troops were stationed at the border.

Moreover, a German government representative announced the expansion of military presence at the borders in response to the activity of Russian drones. In Poland, restrictions on flights have already been imposed until December 9, and ground movement at the border with Belarus has been suspended.

Drone Invasion

On September 10, about 23 drones invaded the territory of Poland and Lithuania, trying to hit important targets. The Prime Minister of Poland agreed to the proposal of the Ukrainian president to send troops for training to counter the drones. It turned out that the Patriot air defense systems did not operate properly, so a new strategy needs to be developed to prevent such attacks.

Security Support

Poland and Germany are strengthening their military presence at the borders with Belarus due to threats, including mass drone attacks, implementing new security measures.

These steps are aimed at ensuring stability in the region amid increasing tension caused by Russia's actions and the activation of military training in Belarus. It is important for the countries of the region to cooperate to counter new challenges arising in the field of security.
