Poland is preparing to amend its law on military deployments abroad to permit its forces to shoot down Russian objects over Ukraine without prior NATO or EU approval, according to Euractiv. In separate developments, French President Emmanuel Macron stated that former US President Donald Trump promised him that Israel's annexation of the West Bank would represent a red line for the US and lead to the end of the Abraham Accords. Meanwhile, the Paris Criminal Court declared former French President Nicolas Sarkozy guilty of criminal association regarding Libyan funding for his electoral campaign, while acquitting him on other charges, as reported by BFMTV. Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni confirmed on the UN stage that Italy would vote in favor of certain European Commission sanctions against Israel, a statement aligning with previous reports. The potential Polish law change, if enacted, could signify a significant shift in how Russia's actions in Ukraine are addressed by neighboring countries. The developments follow an earlier report of an explosion in a Swindon industrial area, which was slated for the UK's largest drone factory. Investigations into that incident are ongoing, with initial reports suggesting potential sabotage.
