WARSAW (Reuters) -An unidentified object likely to be a drone fell near the village of Majdan-Sielec in eastern Poland, private broadcaster RMF FM reported on Saturday.
Poland has been on high alert for objects entering its airspace since a stray Ukrainian missile struck a southern Polish village in 2022, killing two people, a few months into Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
RMF FM reported that the object fell around 500 metres from buildings and that security services were on the scene.
The radio station said that it had confirmed the information with the police.
In August, a drone crashed into a cornfield in eastern Poland. A prosecutor investigating the incident said at the time it appeared to have entered Poland from the direction of Belarus, an ally of Russia.
