With reference to the announcement regarding a balloon moving in Polish airspace, we would like to inform you that the object crossed the Polish border at approximately 15.30 north of Kętrzyn and will leave our space around 8 p.m. Preliminary assessments indicate that the Russian side has lost control over one of the aerostats protecting facilities in the Königsberg Oblast. The facility is continuously monitored by the reconnaissance systems of the Polish Armed Forces and does not pose a threat to national security. Due to the possible negative effects associated with an attempt to destroy it in Polish airspace, the Operational Commander made a conscious decision not to use weapons against the object.

I know that today the candidacy of the next representative to NATO was presented at the Sejm committee. This happened in violation of all rules.
