Polish and Dutch military jets were scrambled this morning, September 11th, following an incursion of Russian drones over Polish airspace. Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany was reportedly informed of the situation overnight, indicating a high level of alert within NATO. The incident, described as an "unprecedented alarm in NATO history," prompted Poland to restrict air traffic in its eastern regions. The Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs had previously announced its request for a UN Security Council meeting to address the violation. This development follows Poland's statement that its forces shot down Russian drones over its territory yesterday. The exact number and type of drones, as well as the specific timing of their incursion and the subsequent engagement, were not immediately detailed. Information regarding equipment losses in the Pokrovsk Raion offensive, as of September 8, 2025, indicated Russian forces sustained 2,787 losses, while Ukrainian forces incurred 899 losses, according to figures shared on social media platform X by user @naalsio26.
