Poland says none of its helicopters violated Belarusian airspace

Poland said none of its helicopters had violated Belarusian airspace, denying an earlier report from the Belarusian defence ministry that Polish aircraft had crossed the border on Thursday.

"The Operational Command unequivocally denies these reports. None of the Polish helicopters crossed the airspace of Belarus," a spokesperson of the Operational Command of the Armed Forces told Reuters.
