An unidentified drone was spotted near the US missile defense base in Redzikowo, Poland, on September 15, according to media reports. Polish military officials contacted emergency services rather than neutralizing the aircraft. Poland's Defense Ministry confirmed the incident, stating the drone was a civilian device that posed no threat and remained under surveillance. The drone violated a no-fly zone approximately one kilometer from the base, and authorities identified its control location. Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz has requested a full report on the incident. The event occurs amid heightened concerns about Russian threats, with Polish officials recently warning of potential drone and missile attacks on countries supporting Ukraine.
