"Most likely, we are witnesses to a large-scale provocation," Tusk said before an emergency government meeting in a statement telecast by TVP Info.
Tusk said that this was the first time that "Russian drones were shot down over the territory of a NATO country," TASS reported.
According to Tusk, all the drones that posed a threat were shot down and the situation is under control. There were no casualties, the Polish prime minister added. Tusk also noted that he keeps in touch with NATO allies, as well as with President Karol Nawrocki.
