In Lublin, following the violation of Polish airspace, Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defense W\u0142adys\u0142aw Kosiniak-Kamysz are participating in a coordination team meeting with representatives of the services. The head of government emphasized that they were ready to shoot down the rocket if it had continued its flight.<\/p>\n
The Operational Command of the Armed Forces (DORSZ) reported that on Thursday at 3:40 AM, an unidentified object was detected in Polish airspace. An F-16 fighter jet was dispatched to identify and intercept it. At 3:46 AM, the object disappeared from radar, and its probable crash site was located near the village of Tarnawa-Kolonia in the Lublin Voivodeship. Consequently, the Prime Minister, the Minister of National Defense, and the Minister of Interior and Administration traveled to Lublin.<\/p>\n
During the staff meeting, the Prime Minister emphasized that there is no information regarding casualties or destruction. Early information indicates that the appropriate services\u2014primarily the military, pilots, and aircraft\u2014acted very quickly and efficiently, with no direct threat as the missile fell in an uninhabited area. Tusk explained that current indications point toward a Russian Kh-101 ballistic missile, though a detailed investigation must confirm its exact type, origin, and the cause of the crater.<\/p>\n
Earlier, the Minister of Interior and Administration stated that the SPO13 procedure was immediately implemented on Thursday morning, triggering alarm sirens for approximately 13 minutes as the fastest way to warn of danger. Lublin police reported receiving a report of a loud bang heard in the Bi\u0142goraj County between Tarnawa Kolonia and Biskupice. Officers discovered a crater and scattered fragments of an unidentified object in a field about 2 kilometers from buildings, an area secured by firefighters with a crater diameter of about 10 meters.<\/p>\n
The military division of the District Prosecutor’s Office in Lublin is conducting necessary investigative actions on-site, personally coordinated by the District Prosecutor.
