Poland shoots down Russian drones – level 1
12-09-2025 15:00
Poland says it shoots down Russian drones. The drones fly into Poland during an attack on Ukraine. The Polish army says that this is dangerous for people.
The prime minister, Donald Tusk, says that many drones come. He says NATO and other friends are helping Poland. Pieces of drones fall near the border. Some airports close, even Warsaw, but they open again later. Experts say that Russia wants to scare Poland and NATO.
At the same time, leaders from Poland and Europe meet in London. They talk about helping Ukraine. In the east, Russia takes much land, but Ukraine still has some big cities. It is not the end of the war yet.
Difficult words: airport (a place where planes land and take off), scare (to make someone feel worried or afraid).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
What support did Donald Tusk say Poland was receiving to address the drone flights?
