Poland president: missile hit likely an accident

Poland has no conclusive evidence showing who fired the missile that caused an explosion in a village near the Ukrainian border, the country’s president Andrzej Duda says, as per Reuters.

“We do not have any conclusive evidence at the moment as to who launched this missile … it was most likely a Russian-made missile, but this is all still under investigation at the moment,” Duda told reporters.

Polish radio station Zet was first to announce that two missiles had hit the locality of Przewodów, the Lublin Voivodeship, yesterday evening. The local firefighters confirmed that there had been explosions in the area. At the same time, a brigade captain said that it was unclear what caused the incident. He also said that two people died at the emergency site.
