Poland: drone crashes in forest

On December 14, a fragment of an unmanned aerial vehicle was found in a forest near the village of Zheleznaya in the Lublin Voivodeship, close to the Ukrainian border.

Polish sources claim this is one of the 'unknown' drones that entered the country en masse back in September.

Meanwhile, some Polish politicians continue discussing the possibility of providing state guarantees to Ukraine, despite security concerns arising from such incidents.
