US Warns Russia May Stage Military Provocation in Poland to Test NATO Resolve
The United States has issued warnings to Poland that Russia might carry out an armed attack on Polish territory as part of a provocation aimed at testing NATO's unity and determination, according to the Polish news site Onet. Washington reportedly conveyed several alerts to Warsaw regarding Russia's plans. Sources close to Polish President Karol Nawrocki indicated that scenarios under consideration include missile or drone strikes against critical infrastructure in Poland, as well as the possibility of Russian troops infiltrating NATO-member Polish territory.
The assessment suggests that Moscow intends to escalate regional tensions and gauge NATO's response to a direct confrontation with one of its member states. Additionally, Russia aims to undermine Western support for Ukraine and reduce aid to Kyiv. The sources cited in the report noted that if this plan is implemented, the Russian provocation could occur within the coming months.
