Poland was supposed to be protected by Patriot batteries. I guess a few, if not ALL the missiles directed at Poland got through?

And do you honestly think that what ever Patriot batteries are there are going to protect every square inch of Poland 24/7?

Not at all. We'll soon find out if the missiles struck near the Polish border with Ukraine, presumably where NATO SAMs may be located.

So, what does NATO do now? Presumably whatever support the AFU need to finish this war asap. More ATACMS for AFU HIMARS?

It is dependent upon what Poland requests. Most likely an article 4 consultation. But all bets are off if they invoke article 5.

You're making a big assumption that the missiles were directed at Poland. Given Russia's apparent crappy targeting processes and, worse, the poor reliability of some of its weapon systems, I think it far more likely that the missiles landed in Polish territory by accident. The 2 missiles seem to have hit nothing of military importance so, rather than being directed at Poland, I suspect they simply missed the target they were aimed at.
