KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 10 — The Embassy of Malaysia in Warsaw has urged all Malaysian citizens residing in the Podlaskie, Mazowieckie, and Lubelskie Voivodeships to remain highly vigilant following a series of recent incidents involving violations of Polish airspace.
It advised Malaysians in the affected regions to follow instructions from local authorities, stay informed through credible news sources, and avoid unnecessary travel.
“Follow instructions from local authorities and pay close attention to all official announcements and emergency broadcasts. Stay informed and monitor credible local news sources for updates on the situation.
“Prioritise your safety and avoid unnecessary travel and stay in safe locations,” the embassy said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
It also urged Malaysians to contact the embassy immediately in case of any emergency at +48 22 617 4413 or +48 660 627 360 (after office hours), or via email at mwwarsaw@kln.gov.my.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced that Poland will fully close its border with Belarus, including railway crossings, starting at 12am on Thursday for national security reasons.
The Polish Press Agency reported that the move will affect all border crossings.
Belarus has responded by protesting the decision, particularly as it coincides with the Russo-Belarusian military drills Zapad-2025.
