Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Wednesday that Russia bears responsibility for damage to a house in the village of Wyryki in eastern Poland. This statement comes amid media reports suggesting that the incident may have been caused by a stray Polish missile rather than a Russian drone.
Polish daily Rzeczpospolita, citing unnamed security sources, reported that a Polish F-16 missile malfunctioned while intercepting Russian drones, striking the house. The missile did not detonate, as its internal safety systems functioned correctly.
Initially, Polish officials stated that the house had been hit by a Russian drone. Tusk wrote on social media platform X, “All responsibility for the damage to the house in Wyryki falls on those responsible for provocation, namely Russia.”
The Prime Minister added that authorities would inform both the public and the President once investigations are completed.
Poland’s National Security Bureau (BBN), which reports directly to the President, said that President Karol Nawrocki had not received an official government report prior to the publication of Rzeczpospolita’s article.
The bureau stated that “The President of the Republic of Poland is still awaiting a precise report on this matter, and the public rightly demands accurate and reliable information.”
The Ministry of Defence said it was providing regular updates to the BBN on the ongoing investigation. Defence Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz dismissed allegations of a cover-up, emphasising that military and security services are carrying out their work as normal.
