President Emmanuel Macron said Thursday that France would deploy three fighter jets to “help protect Polish airspace” after Warsaw accused Russia of launching a drone raid on its territory.

“Following Russian drone incursions into Poland, I have decided to deploy three Rafale fighter jets to help protect Polish airspace and Europe’s eastern flank alongside our NATO allies,” Macron said on X. “We will not give in to Russia’s increasing intimidation.”
