– At 10:06 PM yesterday, the military received the first information about the start of a massive air attack by the Russian Federation on Ukraine. This would not be unusual, were it not for the scale of this attack and the number of drones and missiles involved, – said Prime Minister Donald Tusk in the Sejm.

– Following this information, the Operational Command raised the readiness of forces and assets in the 'Eastern Dawn' operation. In addition to ground systems, SAAB and AWACS early warning aircraft were activated for air operations; this was allied cooperation within NATO. Two F-35s, two F-16s, MI-24, MI-17, and Black Hawk helicopters were dispatched to the anticipated area of operations, – he continued.

– Around 11:30 PM, the first violation of our country's airspace was recorded. The last one we recorded occurred around 6:30 AM. This gives an idea of the scale of this operation; it lasted exactly all night, – he pointed out.
