The military said the measures were preventive and aimed at protecting Polish airspace, particularly near areas of Ukraine under threat. It later said the operation had ended and no violations of Poland’s airspace had been recorded. The attack on Kyiv killed at least 13 people and injured 86, Ukrainian authorities said, as strikes damaged residential buildings and civilian infrastructure across the capital. Rescue teams continued to search damaged sites. Russia’s Defense Ministry said its strikes had targeted military, energy and airfield facilities. Poland has repeatedly put Polish and allied aircraft on alert during Russian attacks on Ukraine.
