Kamysz, Minister of National Defence of Poland, has confirmed that it was a Russian drone that crashed into a cornfield in Lublin Voivodeship on the night of 19-20 August, and said the violation of Polish airspace was another Russian provocation.

A military drone that crashed in a cornfield and exploded in eastern Poland early on Wednesday was Russian, the country's defence minister has said. Police said they received reports of the crash around 2 am and found burned metal and plastic debris at the scene near the village of Osiny.

Japan's defence minister discussed defence industry cooperation and possible purchases of Turkish-made drones during a visit to Ankara on Tuesday, as Tokyo expands the role of unmanned systems in its armed forces.
