Germany is offering Warsaw the Patriot missile defence system to help secure its airspace after a stray missile crashed in Poland last week.

The German government is also offering its neighbour further help in air policing with German Eurofighters after the incident, which initially raised fears that the war in Ukraine could spill across the border.

The missile that hit Poland last week, killing two people, appeared to have been fired by Ukraine’s air defences rather than a Russian strike.

NATO has moved to strengthen air defences in eastern Europe since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February.

It comes as U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak made a visit to Ukraine and offered the nation specialised support in the form of army medics and engineers.

Sunak met face-to-face with President Vlodomir Zelensky – and pledged defence aid that specifically targets Russia’s warfare in the sky.

The equipment short list includes: anti-aircraft guns, plus radars and anti-drone gear. Some of that will specifically target deadly the Iranian kamikaze drones that have been deployed in major cities recently.
