Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned that Russia is preparing possible missile, drone, and hybrid attacks against countries supporting Ukraine, potentially disguising the strikes as accidents to test NATO’s willingness to respond.
Tusk told Poland’s parliament that intelligence pointing to Russian plans against Ukraine’s allies was “very consistent and convincing.”
“We know he is plotting something bad,” Tusk said.
“However, for us the most important task is to prepare for various scenarios.
“We will certainly not naively accept such messages that Russia has goodwill and will start behaving properly.
“There is no indication of this.”
Britain, one of Ukraine’s leading military supporters, could be among the countries at risk, although Tusk did not specifically identify the United Kingdom as a planned target.
Moscow Could Blame Strikes on ‘Accident’
Tusk warned that Moscow could send weapons into NATO territory before insisting that the incident was unintentional.
“There is a real risk that drones or other types of missiles could penetrate the territory of one or more countries on the eastern flank and even cause damage, while the official explanation will be that there was an accident,” Tusk said.
His warning followed a major Russian missile and drone assault on western Ukraine near the Polish border.
Poland scrambled fighter jets and temporarily closed the airports in Rzeszow and Lublin during the attack.
No violation of Polish airspace was reported.
European governments have already accused Russia of conducting sabotage campaigns, drone incursions, and other hybrid operations across the continent.
The Kremlin has denied responsibility for the alleged sabotage.
Tusk warned that autumn and winter could become a particularly dangerous period as Moscow intensifies pressure on Ukraine and probes NATO’s response.
Russia’s expanding use of faster, jet-powered drones has compounded those concerns by giving Western air defenses less time to detect and intercept incoming weapons.
Former British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace described intercepting Russian weapons before they approach NATO territory as “the natural next step.”
Poland has also reinforced its defenses by increasing F-16 patrols and authorizing its forces to respond to Russian military aircraft that enter Polish airspace.
Russian Drone Strikes Train Near Poland
The latest alarm came after another Russian drone strike close to the Polish border.
A Russian drone struck a passenger train in Ukraine approximately 1.2 miles from Poland, shortly after former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and other Western officials traveled along the same route.
No casualties were reported.
The growing danger has renewed pressure on NATO members to increase defense spending as Russia continues expanding its drone, missile, and sabotage operations.
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has urged Britain to establish a clear annual path toward spending 3.5% of its gross domestic product on core defense by 2035.
“You cannot spend it today, but you can also not wait ’til 2035,” Rutte said.
“And that is why you need a credible path towards that 3.5 per cent, and yearly increments.
“I think we are on the right path now to make sure that also going forward we stay ahead of the Russians.
“But again, that means that all of us, the UK and all the others, have to stick to that path to the 3.5 per cent with yearly increments.”
The British government has said NATO-qualifying defense spending will increase to 2.7% of GDP in 2027-28.
A longer-term plan for meeting the alliance’s 3.5% target is expected in a future spending review.
NATO governments are confronting mounting concern that Russia could use increasingly aggressive drone, missile, and sabotage operations to test the alliance without immediately triggering a conventional war.
For Poland, which borders Ukraine and sits directly on NATO’s eastern flank, that threat is no longer theoretical.
