Poland scrambled its aircraft and put its air defenses on high alert overnight Sunday in response to a combined Russian drone and missile attack on Ukraine. This is the third such response by Poland this month, reflecting growing concerns among NATO's eastern flank members about spillover from the conflict. The attack involved numerous drones and missiles, resulting in civilian casualties in Ukraine. While the statement didn't specify allied participation, Swedish aircraft were involved in a similar response last week. Polish forces remain on high alert.
