The president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, warned about the growing threat posed by Russian drones in Europe, after the recent incursion of 19 of these aircraft into Polish airspace. Zelenski revealed that originally 92 drones were heading toward Poland, but Ukraine managed to shoot down the majority before they crossed the border. On his social media, he emphasized that similar incidents have occurred in several Northern European countries, and warned of the risk that Italy could be the next target. According to their analysis, these actions are part of Russia's strategy to test European defenses and undermine ongoing support for Ukraine.
Moreover, Zelenski urged European countries not to slow down their military support, warning that the lack of transfer of air defense systems could weaken them in the face of future attacks. Meanwhile, there have been multiple drone sightings documented in Denmark and Norway, which have led to the disruption of air traffic in some areas. The Danish government referred to possible acts of "hybrid warfare," although it has not yet attributed these events to any particular party. The situation highlights a growing tension across the continent, where the fear of Moscow's influence is intensifying.
