Poland Fortifies Eastern Border with €2 Billion Anti-Drone Defenses
Following a significant incursion of suspected Russian drones, Poland is set to complete new anti-drone fortifications along its eastern border within two years. The new air defense systems, costing over €2 billion, will integrate with existing defenses, incorporating various protective layers, including machine guns, missiles, and drone-jamming systems. These fortifications are part of a broader effort, including the Eastern Shield, to prevent future Russian aggression, especially considering the rise in suspected sabotage and arson activities linked to Russian intelligence. This strategic investment underscores Poland’s commitment to defense, with increased spending and the implementation of civil preparedness programs, while simultaneously building logistics hubs in all border municipalities.
