More than 50 balloons equipped with GPS transmitters entered Polish airspace from Belarusian territory on the night of January 16-17. So far, only nine of them have been found. One of the illegal shipments landed in the center of Białystok.
National Security Bureau (BBN) reported that President Karol Nawrocki is being kept informed in real time by Minister Sławomir Cenckiewicz about the course and consequences of the nighttime incursion of several dozen objects from Belarusian territory.
“The National Security Bureau monitored the incident throughout the night, gathering and analyzing information obtained from military and civilian institutions” – we read in the statement. The institution said it cannot be ruled out that this is a provocation under the guise of a smuggling operation similar to the one that took place during Christmas.
BBN appealed for people to follow official announcements from the police and the Border Guard and, in the event of finding “objects, packages, or debris that may potentially be connected with the described incident, not to approach them and to immediately notify the appropriate services”.
