BERLIN — European defense ministers will convene next week and discuss specifics of a planned “drone wall” meant to protect the continent from incursions of its airspace coming from Russia, Reuters reported on Thursday.
The initiative gained a sense of urgency following the violation of Polish airspace by Russian strike drones last week, which left at least one house damaged.
“We want really to move ahead with very, very intensive and effective preparations to start to fill this gap, which is really very dangerous for us… as quickly as we can do it,” EU Defense Commissioner Andrius Kubilius, who is Lithuanian, told Reuters.
