Poland has during the early morning hours patrolled the airspace with fighter jets since Russia attacked Ukrainian Zaporizhzhia.

A woman was killed and six people were injured in the Russian drone attack on Ukrainian Zaporizhzhia. Among the injured is a 16-year-old girl.

In addition to mobilizing fighter jets, Poland has also put its ground defense on high alert, especially in areas near the Ukrainian border.

The air alarm has sounded across Ukraine during the night towards Sunday. During the week, Russia has targeted Ukrainian gas pipelines and infrastructure in large-scale attacks.
