Days later, at least 21 Russian drones entered Polish airspace on the night of 9-10 September. Following the violation, allied aircraft, including Polish, Dutch, Italian and American, began operating in the airspace, and air defence and radar systems were put on high alert, prompting the closure of several airports in the country. Up to four Russian drones were shot down, while one crashed in Oleśno, near Elbląg. Poland also invoked NATO Article 4 in response.
