Poland: The missile that crashed on our soil is a Russian cruise missile

Poland has confirmed that a projectile which fell near its border with Ukraine was a Russian cruise missile, specifically a Kh-101 model. The missile exploded upon impact, creating a crater approximately 10 meters wide and landing on agricultural land about two kilometers away from residential buildings. Deputy Minister of Defense Cezary Tomczyk stated that the missile could potentially carry nuclear warheads and posed a significant threat. This incident follows a series of Russian attacks on the airspace of Eastern NATO countries, including Romania and Baltic states, raising concerns about the potential escalation of the conflict into neighboring territories. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte discussed the situation with Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk and emphasized solidarity with Poland, stating that this incident is another reckless act by Russia and a dangerous consequence of its war against Ukraine.
