Radosław Sikorski on Russia's deliberate action

Sikorski denied the proposition that the Polish air defence was not ready to defy the raid, "taking into account the fact that any of the drones have travelled hundreds of miles into the territory of Poland, and according to reports only 3 or 4 of around 19 have been shot down" - emphasized in "The Guardian".

- I'm sorry. The drones have not reached their targets, small material harm has occurred, no 1 has been injured. If this had happened in Ukraine, according to Ukrainian definitions, it would have been considered a 100% success explained Sikorski.
