In the Lublin Voivodeship of Poland a Russian X-101 cruise missile, manufactured in the second quarter of 2026, crashed.
This was announced by the spokesperson for the District Prosecutor’s Office in Lublin Marcin Kozak, according to “Ukrinform”.
According to a spokesperson for the prosecutor’s office, Polish experts conducted a preliminary examination of the crash site and collected evidence that helped determine the origin of the munition.
“Preliminary examination of the site and the traces found—that is, the components of the aerial object—allow us to unequivocally confirm what kind of object we are dealing with. It is an X-101 missile, manufactured in the second quarter of 2026 at a facility in the Moscow Region,” Kozak stated.
He also added that a Ukrainian expert, who arrived in Poland on Thursday evening, had been brought in to assist with the missile’s identification.
As a reminder, on the night of July 30, an air raid alert was issued in eastern Poland due to a massive Russian strike on western regions of Ukraine. Reports soon emerged that one or two missiles may have briefly entered Polish airspace.
Later, residents of the Lublin Voivodeship reported powerful explosions. Subsequently, a large crater was discovered in a field near the village of Tarnawa-Kolonia, which, according to preliminary data, may have been caused by the impact of an unidentified object.
Subsequently, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that the missile that fell on Polish territory on July 30 missile that fell on Polish territory on July 30 was equipped with a warhead. According to him, it most likely came from Russian territory.
