NATO Invokes Article 4, Calls for Consultation After Russia “Provokes” Sends Drones into Poland | 4K

Poland gathered its NATO allies for urgent talks on Wednesday (Sept. 10) after Russian drones flew into Polish airspace during an attack on Ukraine, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said, warning that the situation was inching closer to “open conflict”.Poland’s airspace was violated 19 times, Tusk said, and at least three drones were shot down after Warsaw and its allies scrambled jets — but authorities said nobody was harmed.Tusk said he had invoked NATO’s Article 4 under which any member can call urgent talks when it feels its “territorial integrity, political independence or security” are at risk — only the eighth time the measure has ever been used.”This situation… brings us closer than ever to open conflict since World War II,” Tusk told parliament, but added there was “no reason today to claim that we are in a state of war”.The incident came as Russia unleashed a barrage of strikes across Ukraine including in the western city of Lviv, less than two hours’ drive from the Polish border. n18oc_world n18oc_crux0:00 INTRODUCTION5:44 BELARUS “DESTROYED” DRONES THAT HAD “LOST THEIR TRACK”7:44 ZELENSKY EYES “JOINT AIR DEFENCE SYSTEM”
