Poland, NATO Say Fatal Missile Landing Wasn't Russian Attack
Newsy
NATO members Germany and the U.K. were among those stressing the need for a full investigation into the strike that killed two people in Poland.
Poland said Wednesday there is “absolutely no indication” that a missile that came down in Polish farmland, killing two people, was an intentional attack on the NATO country, and that neighbor Ukraine likely launched the Soviet-era projectile as it fended off a Russian air assault that savaged its power grid.

“Ukraine’s defense was launching their missiles in various directions and it is highly probable that one of these missiles unfortunately fell on Polish territory," said Polish President Andrzej Duda. “There is nothing, absolutely nothing to suggest that it was an intentional attack on Poland.”
