Slovak authorities reported Wednesday that they have decided to tighten the security of their airspace after a projectile fell on Polish territory in the midst of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
The country’s Prime Minister, Eduard Heger, confirmed that «monitoring systems and drones have been set up to monitor the airspace» given the «danger of a similar incident to the one in Poland in Slovakia», which he called «inadmissible».
Thus, he urged Russia to put an end to «this senseless attack on Ukraine» and urged citizens to «act with caution and verify the information that is spread through the media», according to information from the newspaper ‘Teraz’.
The country’s Minister of Defense, Jaroslav Nad, has indicated that the impact of the missile on Polish soil could respond to several questions: «it could be a Russian missile falling in Poland by accident or a change in the trajectory of a projectile after being hit by the Ukrainian Army». «In any case,» he said, «all these possibilities imply a response to Russian aggression.»
