Poland proposes joint Patriot missile production with US and Ukraine

Poland has proposed joint Patriot missile production with the US and Ukraine as Romania reports drone activity and damage to a commercial ship.
Poland has proposed joint production of Patriot air defense missiles with the United States and Ukraine to address regional security challenges, according to Polish Deputy Defense Minister Magdalena Sobkowiak-Czarnecka during a visit to Washington.
The initiative comes amid heightened security concerns in Eastern Europe. Overnight, Romanian defense officials reported tracking Russian drones approximately 33 kilometers north of the Romanian border during air strikes against targets in Ukraine, prompting authorities to issue alerts in Tulcea county. Additionally, the commercial vessel "Christiana B", traveling from the United States toward Ukraine, sustained damage within Romania's exclusive economic zone.
