On September 11th, 2025, Poland shot down Russian drones that had intruded into its airspace, marking the deepest penetration ever into NATO territory. The Netherlands provided assistance to Poland during this incident. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that this intrusion brought NATO closer to open conflict with Russia. In response to Russia's Zapad war games in Belarus, which simulate an attack on NATO, Poland had previously closed its border with Belarus. Additionally, a Belarusian spy was arrested and a diplomat expelled by Poland. Analysts suggest the 2021 Zapad maneuvers served as training for Russia’s subsequent invasion of Ukraine.
