Poland says a Russian military helicopter from Kaliningrad briefly entered its airspace on Wednesday morning, forcing Nato to scramble fighter jets. The Mi-8 aircraft went about 300 metres into Polish airspace for 42 seconds, north of Braniewo. Poland believes Russia is testing its air defence and readiness to support Ukraine.
