Poland launched fighter jets early Thursday to defend its airspace as Russia attacked western Ukraine, a region close to the NATO border. Warsaw ordered the aircraft into the air and put its air-defense systems on high alert. The move is a direct response to the Russian strikes near Polish territory. The escalation comes as Warsaw reviews proposed concessions to Russia from the Trump administration. Polish officials are concerned that a deal could weaken Ukraine's position and increase the risk of the war spreading into NATO territory.
