Looks like a false flag
NATO Scrambles Jets As Russian Drones Allegedly Enter Poland's Airspace Overnight
update(1950ET): Sky News is citing Ukraine's air force to say that Russian drones have entered the airspace of Poland, threatening the city of Zamosc - which lies some 40 miles from the Ukrainian border. Some initial sources are citing a 'wave' of drones, but this remains unclear. Per Reuters:
Poland placed its air defenses on the highest state of readiness after Ukraine’s air force warned that Russian drones had crossed into Polish airspace, according to early reports.
The Polish Armed Forces said early Wednesday local time that all necessary procedures were activated to secure national airspace as Russia carried out large-scale overnight strikes on Ukraine.
“Polish and allied aircraft are operating in our airspace, and ground-based air defense and radar systems have reached the highest level of readiness,” the Operational Command said. It described the measures as preventive and aimed at protecting citizens in regions bordering Ukraine.
However, the initial Polish military statement itself did not specify a Russian breach of Poland's airspace:
This is not a first time that Russian drones have breached Polish airspace, prompting fighter jets to be scrambled, or else searches for crash or landing spots within the Polish side of the border. Some unconfirmed reports have said there have been intercepts over Poland.
Getting the attention of US Congressmen and likely the White House:
@SenatorDurbin
Repeated violations of NATO airspace by Russian drones are fair warning that Vladimir Putin is testing our resolve to protect Poland and the Baltic nations. After the carnage Putin continues to visit on Ukraine, these incursions cannot be ignored.

And open source monitoring sites are noticing an uptick in allied activity over eastern Poland…
Another Notice-to-Airmen (NOTAM) has been issued for Eastern Poland by the Polish Civil Aviation Authority within the last few minutes, this time for Lublin Airport, stating that the airport is unavailable due to “unplanned military activity related to ensuring state security.”
