Ukraine War Thread Part 2
Russian Cruise Missle violated for a minute Polish Airspace. At an interesting corner: Oserdow (heading to Lviv region). Released obviously from a long range bomber.
Any ideas where from it could have been fired off? Belarus? Anyway not a DCT as it seems, but I dont know anything about cruise missle routing tactics..

Why stop? crawling fwd at a snails pace would soon shift them, they need to fit a snow plough to the front... or simply arrest them.
Ecce Homo! Loquitur...
The AFU hit the ship "Konstantin Olshansky" with "Neptune" subsonic cruise missiles. Damage to the vessel is being specified.

You don't see this often. Elimination of enemy UAV pilots along with their position and equipment.
They are so relaxed that they don’t wear body armor or helmets. They think they are safe if they work from the basement.
A Ukrainian kamikaze drone with a landmine weighing 2 kg flew straight into the basement and detonated. It is impossible to survive after this.

Russia's ambassador to Poland refused to go to the Polish Foreign Ministry, where he was invited about the missile that violated Polish airspace
"Warsaw has not provided an evidentiary basis," - Sergei Andreev said.
Polish Foreign Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz said in response that further steps would be taken in this regard in the near future.
The minister called the Russian ambassador's decision erroneous: "This is an expression of contempt and we cannot remain indifferent to it," he said.

Simply deport him, end off.
I suspect that their engagement geometry may have risked the engagement / impact / intercept happening outside of their airspace and thus into Russian airspace...so they chose not to shoot.
Good news.

Closest Russian airspace to where this incident occurred is nearly 400km. I doubt that this would have been a factor in their decision making
What I looked at on the map with the story I saw of the event, it appeared to be an "at the edge of the border airspace" ... but if that impression was wrongly interpreted by me, thanks for the correction.
Of course Belorussian airspace is much closer and I doubt if they would dare say anything if a missile routed via their airspace in an effort to outflank the defences on its way to a target in western Ukraine.

Precisely, it will allow them to monitor the likes of illegal aliens attempting to cross the border and target Polish forces to the areas where they have been seen. Thus preventing them being pushed through by Belarus.

Another possibility is you do not want it falling on a Polish built up area, better to let it pass than cause injuries on the ground.
