Details: The balloon is moving eastwards in the airspace of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship and is continuously monitored by the Polish Armed Forces.
Its course suggests it will leave Polish airspace in several hours.
“The balloon does not pose a threat to the security of the residents of the area in which it has been seen moving,” the Polish Armed Forces wrote on Twitter (X), adding that they are monitoring the situation.
Background:
