#BREAKING: Russia has been preparing for drone attacks on Poland since July, with Polish and Lithuanian SIM cards discovered in Russian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This development raises concerns about reconnaissance missions aimed at targeting Polish air defense systems.

The suspected drone flights coincide with the upcoming massive Russian-Belarusian military exercises, dubbed "Zapad-2025," which are set to begin in Belarus on September 12. These exercises are expected to involve significant military maneuvers and could escalate tensions in the region.

Intelligence sources indicate that the UAVs have been deployed as probes, gathering information that may be used to undermine Poland"s defense capabilities. This follows a pattern of heightened military activity in Eastern Europe, where similar situations have been reported, such as Russia"s airspace violation in Poland.

As these developments unfold, Poland remains on high alert. The implications for regional security are significant, with NATO and other allies closely monitoring the situation. The potential for increased military engagement in Eastern Europe looms as the exercises draw near, heightening concerns among NATO member states.
