The russian drones that massively violated Polish airspace on the night of September 10 were carrying explosives. This means that the threat was much higher than originally thought. Polish Lieutenant General Maciej Klisz has said this, Polish radio RMF24 reports.
According to his statement, even the decoys posed a danger.
"Some of the Russian drones, even those used to overload air defense systems, were equipped with explosives. The claim that these were cardboard and paper objects is not entirely true," Klisz said.
According to him, in September, the threat to Poland from russian drones "was real."
