Poland shot down a drone over Warsaw: two Belarusians detained.

According to inkorr.com: The Polish State Security Service successfully intercepted a drone that was flying over government institutions and the Belvedere Palace in Warsaw. This was reported by Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

According to the Polish leader, the security service recently intercepted a drone that was in the airspace over government buildings on Parkowa Street and the Belvedere Palace. In connection with this incident, two Belarusian citizens were detained. The police are currently investigating the circumstances of the event.

Escalation of the situation with drones

This incident occurs against the backdrop of escalating problems with drones in Polish airspace. On the night of September 10, 2025, Russian drones massively invaded this airspace, penetrating from the territory of Ukraine and Belarus. According to Donald Tusk, 19 drones entered Polish territory.

This is the first case since the beginning of the Russo-Ukrainian conflict when Poland was forced to take air defense measures in its own skies. Some drones were shot down, and NATO aircraft were activated for the first time in response to this threat.

In Poland, it was possible to neutralize the drone operating over Warsaw, which became the first case of using weapons in the airspace of the country during the Russo-Ukrainian conflict.

The incident reflects the growing tension in the region and the need to improve security measures. The Polish authorities, responding to these challenges, are actively working to strengthen air defense and coordinate with NATO allies. These details continue to emphasize the importance of effective preparedness and response to modern threats.
