Explosive Allegations: Russian Sabotage on Polish Rails

Poland suspects Russian intelligence of sponsoring a sabotage attack on its railways, damaging tracks leading to Ukraine. An investigation is underway, as the Polish government convenes its National Security Committee. Officials are gathering and verifying information to understand the direction of the security threat.

Poland's special services minister accused Russian intelligence of orchestrating a sabotage attack on Polish railways, damaging a key route to Ukraine.

This statement marks the first time a Polish official has publicly linked Russia to the explosion, which Prime Minister Donald Tusk labeled as 'an unprecedented act of sabotage.' Authorities, led by spokesperson Jacek Dobrzynski, are actively collecting and scrutinizing evidence.

An emergency National Security Committee meeting, attended by military commanders and top officials, was convened to assess the threat and decide on the next steps after the suspected sabotage.
