WARSAW, Poland — Polish officials say a Lufthansa plane that was approaching Warsaw’s international airport nearly collided with a *****.

The spokesman for Warsaw’s airport, Przemyslaw Przybylski, said Tuesday that the ******** happened Monday afternoon around 4 p.m., and the ***** was within 100 metres (300 feet) of the plane arriving from Munich.

He said the near-********* occurred about 5 kilometres (3 miles) from the airport.

He added that ****** are investigating the ******** to determine who operated the *****, which should not have been where it was.

Mikolaj Karpinski, with the Polish Air Navigation Services Agency, told the TVN24 broadcaster that the pilots immediately reported the ***** to air traffic controllers, who redirected the plane’s path. Karpinski said he considered the ******** serious.
