"In the last few minutes, Poland's prime minister Donald Tusk has said that yesterday's disruption on a busy railway route between Warsaw and Lublin in eastern Poland was confirmed as caused by an explosive device placed on the track. Unfortunately, [our] worst fears have been confirmed. On the Warsaw-Lublin route (Mika village), an act of sabotage has occurred. The explosion of an explosive device destroyed the railway track, he said."
"The incident was reported on Sunday morning after a driver of a regional passenger train had spotted a missing part of the track, triggering an investigation into the causes of the damage. The incident will cause further concern in Poland which remains on high alert amid continuing hybrid threats from Russia and Belarus, after more than 20 drones flew into Polish airspace in September, prompting a Nato response."
"Expect more reactions from Poland and allies. But the main event of the day will come a bit later as Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy flies to Paris to meet with the country's president, Emmanuel Macron, and discuss the latest on Ukraine and bilateral cooperation on defence, energy, and the economy. The President of the French Republic Emmanuel Macron"
An explosive device destroyed railway tracks on the Warsaw–Lublin route at Mika, and authorities have confirmed an act of sabotage. Investigators found additional damage elsewhere on the same line and a regional train driver first noticed a missing section of track, prompting an inquiry. Emergency services and the prosecutor's office are working at the scene. Poland remains on high alert amid ongoing hybrid threats from Russia and Belarus, following incidents including more than 20 drones entering Polish airspace in September and a NATO response. Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy will fly to Paris to meet Emmanuel Macron to discuss defence, energy, and economic cooperation.
