Putin has lost his mind and has deliberately launched dozens of drones against Poland and Moldova tonight in conjunction with its massive attack on Ukraine. Multiple NATO aircraft have mobilized to support Poland, and Polish air defenses have been activated. This is effing insanely serious — from CNN:

Polish authorities have closed Warsaw International Airport and Polish and NATO aircraft have been scrambled as reports have surfaced of Russian drones over the country. The Polish military’s Operational Command said in a statement that “ground-based air defense and radar reconnaissance systems have reached the highest level of alert” after Russia launched massive airstrikes on Ukrainian territory. “To ensure the security of Polish airspace, the Operational Commander of the Polish Armed Forces has activated all necessary procedures,” the statement said, adding that the Polish military is “fully prepared for immediate response.”

This is clearly an Article 5 situation and clearly requires an immediate ultimatum from NATO to Russia to cease and desist all their current military activity against Ukraine and the rest of Europe or face the consequences.

The YouTube war correspondent Chuck Holton is covering this live on his The Hot Zone channel:

The most disturbing thing is that this clearly isn’t an accidental incursion — Putin’s spokesman appears to be saying anyone helping Ukraine is now ‘fair game’ as far as Russia is concerned. Stay tuned for updates, assuming WW3 doesn’t go nuclear in the next few hours — it’s going to be a long night.
