In early November, Poland’s defense minister asked Germany to deliver a shipment of Patriot surface-to-air missiles originally intended for Poland to Ukraine in order to help Kiev defend itself against Russia.
The Polish offer comes on the heels of two people being killed when a missile landed on a Polish village, which Warsaw suspects is a Ukrainian air defense missile fired during Kiev’s response to a barrage of Russian attacks.
In a tweet, Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said: "He asked Germany to send the Polish-bound Patriot system to Ukraine, where it could be deployed on the western border".
The minister said: "This will allow Ukraine to protect itself from further casualties and power outages and enhance security on our eastern border".
Warsaw and NATO suggested the blast was caused by an air defense missile fired by Ukraine while intercepting a barrage of Russian missiles, but ultimately held Moscow responsible as the cause of the conflict.
German Patriot units are deployed in Slovakia and Berlin intends to keep them until the end of 2023.
