Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned that Russia plans to launch “hybrid-style” drone and missile strikes against nations supporting Ukraine, including NATO-member Poland, as the war enters its most crucial phase. Tusk stated in parliament that the Kremlin’s main goal, supported by intelligence evidence, is to destroy Ukraine’s economy and logistics while weakening NATO’s resolve through attacks on member states. He called this the “most likely scenario” for the conflict’s next stage.

The warning underscores escalating tensions between Russia and Western allies backing Ukraine. Tusk emphasized that Russian targeting of NATO territories represents a strategic effort to fracture alliance unity and disrupt supply lines critical to Ukraine’s defense.

Lawmakers were briefed on intelligence findings indicating Russia’s intent to broaden strikes beyond Ukraine’s borders. The statement marks a significant escalation in rhetoric from Poland, a frontline state hosting NATO infrastructure and refugee support operations.
