An unknown object that entered Polish airspace from the
eastern direction was probably an observation balloon,
the Polish Ministry of Defense announced on Twitter on
Saturday.
The ministry said that the object was spotted by the country's
flight control center, but radar contact with the object was
lost near Rypin, a town in central Poland 143 kilometers
northwest of the capital, Warsaw.
Captain Ewa Zlotnicka, press officer of the Armed Forces
Operational Command, told broadcaster TVN 24 the object
entered Polish airspace on Friday evening. According to
Zlotnicka, to intercept the object, two MiG-29s, and then
the F-16, were sent into the air.
