Reference News website, August 23 report - According to Reuters, on August 21, the Polish Minister of Defense, Kaczyński-Kamiński, said that the Netherlands will send two "Patriot" air defense systems and about 300 personnel to NATO ally Poland to protect a center in Poland that provides military aid to Ukraine.

The report stated that earlier this week, a Russian-made drone crashed in eastern Poland. This has intensified Poland's concerns about its airspace being violated during Ukraine's war with its neighboring country.

Kaczyński-Kamiński welcomed the Netherlands' decision at a press conference. He said, "Due to the events happening in Ukraine, the ongoing conflict, and Poland's role in ensuring the logistics of transferring equipment to Ukraine, the Netherlands announced its support for the system to protect our airspace and air defense weapons."

The Netherlands said on the 20th that the "Patriot" system will be deployed from December 1st this year to June 1st next year. (Translation/ Ma Dan)
