Poland’s Armed Forces Operational Command said on Sept. 10 that air traffic restrictions have been introduced along the country’s eastern border with Belarus and Ukraine, following the downing of suspected Russian drones in the NATO member’s airspace.

The restricted zone, EP R129, took effect at midnight local time on Sept. 11 and will remain in place until 12:59 a.m. local time on Dec. 10, according to a statement from the Polish Air Navigation Services Agency.
