Polish authorities have identified two Ukrainian nationals with long histories of working for Russian intelligence as the primary suspects in recent railway sabotage incidents, according to Prime Minister Donald Tusk. One individual previously received a conviction for similar acts inside Ukraine. The suspects entered Poland from Belarus and have since returned through the Terespol border crossing.
Military-grade explosives detonated near Mika as a freight train passed, while damaged infrastructure near Pulawy forced an emergency stop for a passenger train carrying 475 people. Tusk stated that Moscow aims to generate panic and fuel anti-Ukrainian sentiment among Polish residents, including over one million refugees from the conflict. Polish officials plan to increase security measures on certain rail routes.
The Kremlin rejected involvement claims, with spokesman Dmitry Peskov characterizing accusations as typical examples of anti-Russian attitudes. Poland has detained 55 suspects related to sabotage activities since last year, with 23 remaining in custody.
