Missile that left crater deep inside Poland was probably Russian - Polish PM

The missile landed close to the village of Tarnawa Kolonia deep inside Polish territory Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has said an object that crashed into a field in eastern Poland in the early hours of Thursday was probably a Russian missile. The unidentified object caused a 10m-wide (33ft) crater a short distance from the village of Tarnawa Kolonia, about 100km (62 miles) from the border with Ukraine during a Russian attack on the city of Lviv. "All the indications are that it was a Russian Kh-101 ballistic missile, but we want to be 100% certain about the type of missile and who launched it," Tusk said during a specially convened meeting in Lublin. Ukraine's acting Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said earlier on Thursday that a Russian Kh-101 cruise missile had "crossed into Poland as part of Russia's massive strike against Ukraine, violating Nato airspace".
