Poland braces for Russian hybrid attacks near Ukrainian border
Residents along the Polish-Ukrainian border are facing increased anxiety following recent incidents involving Russian drones. Explosions occurred near the Dorohusk-Yahodyn border crossing, causing local disruptions and sirens to wail in nearby Polish villages.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has warned that Russia is planning hybrid attacks, potentially using drones or rockets, against European nations that support Ukraine. This warning is bolstered by reports from the Danish Foreign Intelligence Service (DDIS), which suggests that limited military strikes against NATO infrastructure could occur in the coming months.
In response to the escalating security situation, the European Union has extended its economic sanctions against Russia for an additional three years. Meanwhile, in Poland, civilians have begun participating in crisis training to prepare for potential conflict spillover.
