British fighter jets conducted a Nato air defence mission over Poland in response to Russian drone incursions. The RAF Typhoon jets were deployed to bolster the eastern flank of the military alliance. Tensions have risen due to repeated Russian violations of airspace, with Defence Secretary John Healey emphasizing the commitment to defend Nato airspace. The operation, named Eastern Sentry, follows a significant increase in drone activity. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk noted the heightened risk of conflict, marking a serious escalation since World War Two.
