The UK will mass produce cutting-edge interceptor drones to help Ukraine fight off Russian aerial attacks. The drones, designed by Ukraine with support from UK scientists and technicians, are highly effective in destroying the one-way attack aircraft Moscow continues to launch at Ukrainian cities, according to the Ministry of Defence (MoD).

Meanwhile, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warns his country is at its closest to open conflict since World War Two.

The alleged breach of Polish airspace by Russian drones - leading to an operation to shoot some down with NATO airplanes - has raised tensions in Europe.

Defence Secretary John Healey said he had ordered armed forces to look at ways of boosting NATO air defence over Poland after Russian drones were shot down

It marks the first initiative under a tech-sharing initiative between London and Kyiv, after Sir Keir Starmer and Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed an industrial deal earlier this year.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Wednesday he was deeply concerned by the violation of Polish and NATO airspace by Russian drones during an air attack on Ukraine, calling it an "extremely reckless" move by Moscow.

The UK will mass produce cutting-edge interceptor drones to help Ukraine fight off Russian aerial attacks following an unprecedented violation of Polish airspace that experts say will lead to the “substantial” NATO reinforcement in the region.
