On Saturday, July 18, military police conducted a bomb disposal operation after an unattended suitcase was found on the steps of the Ministry of National Defense in Warsaw. <\/p>\n
On Saturday, July 18, at Nowowiejska Street near the intersection with Aleja Niepodleg\u0142o\u015bci in \u015ar\u00f3dmie\u015bcie, a security operation was conducted in front of the Ministry of National Defense building. The intervention was triggered by unattended baggage left on the steps leading to the building. Due to the location and significance of the facility for state security, the report was treated with the utmost caution.<\/p>\n
The area was secured by Military Police officers along with ZTM and Warsaw Tram traffic control personnel. During the operation, vehicular and tram traffic was blocked. Military pyrotechnicians were dispatched to the scene to inspect the suspicious item. The pyrotechnic reconnaissance yielded a negative result, as no items posing a direct threat to people nearby were found inside the abandoned suitcase.<\/p>\n
Due to the nature of the incident, further proceedings were initiated to identify the person who left the baggage and to clarify their motives. Proceedings were launched under Article 224a paragraph 1 of the Penal Code. The gathered documentation was forwarded to the Warsaw-Ursyn\u00f3w District Prosecutor’s Office, specifically to the department dealing with military cases. Currently, no one has been detained in connection with the incident.<\/p>\n
