Dmitry Pieskov stated on 14 September that the Russian army operates throughout Ukraine and “will proceed to do so”. This is the Kremlin's consequence after drone attacks from the night of 12 to 13 September in the Ja hr area, about 2 km from Poland. For our country this means a permanent threat right at the border and the request for full defence readiness.
The Kremlin does not announce any limitation of action
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitri Pieskov was asked on Monday 14 September about Russian strikes close the Polish-Ukrainian border. The answer was short and without even trying to calm the situation. He stated that the Russian military would carry out tasks throughout Ukraine and would proceed to do so.
This declaration is more crucial than a simple comment from the Ombudsman. Moscow signals that the proximity of Poland, the NATO state, will not be a reason for it to limit operations. Prior warnings on possible Russian provocations against Poland It is so essential to treat as a real component of the safety assessment, not a political ornament.
Attack 2 kilometers from Poland
The events occurred on the night of 12th to 13th September in the Yahka area, on the Ukrainian side of the border. The president of the Council of Ministers' office statedthat the attack took place about 2 km from Poland and took over the area of the fuel station and the railway depot standing on the siding. The government besides noted that the first reports of the passenger train locomotive and the truck column required further confirmation.
Ukrainian railways reported that the drone struck a locomotive connected with the Kiev-Warsaw merger. According to the Associated Press study 206 passengers were not injured. A fuel station was besides attacked nearby. Details of the night impact at Dorohusk show how small distance the site of the detonation was from the territory of the Republic.
During the Russian operation, Polish aviation was put on standby and residents of border regions received warnings. This is how the state should act erstwhile the threat approaches its borders. However, an ad hoc reaction alone is not adequate if Russian force is to persist for weeks or months.
Polish border requires hard cover
Prime Minister Donald Tusk, after a briefing at the Government safety Center, assessed that the escalation of Russian activities became a fact. He announced enhanced service mode, peculiar protection of border crossings and talks with allies. This is the right direction, but must lead to circumstantial capabilities: fast detection of targets, efficient circulation of information and protection of infrastructure on the Polish side.
The problem is very practical. Border crossings and railway lines service Polish citizens, trade and transport. Their paralysis hits security, economy and freedom of action. No shelters in Dorohusk alone In addition, it shows that the resilience of border towns cannot only be in communications.
Russia is at war in Ukraine, but its effects are increasingly affecting the immediate environment of Poland. Neither panic nor tame the threat can be the answer. Air defence, efficient civilian procedures and tough alliance cooperation are needed, subject to the Polish interest. The words of Pieskov clearly say that the Kremlin itself does not intend to reduce the risk.
