Russian missiles approach NATO border, Poland on alert; mobilizes the air force

Following the launch of the Russian offensive in Ukraine today, Poland has begun mobilization by preparing at least three F-16 fighter jets.

Russian missiles approached the Polish border before hitting targets on Ukrainian soil.

Among the Russian targets was reported to be a Ukrainian drone factory in Mykolaiv, and volleys of attacks were also reported in Kiev and Kharkiv.

As buildings burned in Ukraine, the looming threat of a wider war involving NATO was underscored by Polish alert early today after Russian missiles appeared to be headed for Poland.

An attack on a NATO country can trigger Article 5 of the military alliance, which states that if a NATO ally is the victim of an armed attack, other members of the Alliance will consider this an act aggression against all members.

Poland was hit by a missile in November 2022, near the border with Ukraine, killing two people. Initial reports suggested it was a Russian missile, sparking fears it could spark a wider conflict, but it was later reported by Poland and the United States that the missile was likely a misfired Ukrainian air defense missile.
