Poland did not shoot down air object flying from Ukraine due to bad atmospheric conditions

Poland has said that it did not shoot down an air object, which flew in from Ukraine during a massive Russian missile attack on Ukraine because of atmospheric conditions. Source: Maciej Klisz, Commander of the Operational Command of the Polish Armed Forces, as quoted by Polsat News and European Pravda Details: Klisz said he was ready to give the order to destroy the object and was in contact with Defence Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz, as well as Chief of the General Staff Wieslaw Kukula.

Quote: "The object disappeared after [flying] about 25 km [deep into] Polish territory.

Due to atmospheric conditions, I was unable to give the command to shoot it down," he added. The general noted that after it disappeared, the object was detected neither by NATO nor Polish aircraft. A search operation has been launched, with troops and helicopters heading to the scene.

The general said that the object was probably still on Polish territory, although he also did not rule out the possibility that it could have flown away.
