Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk confirmed that Russian secret services orchestrated the May 2024 arson attack on Warsaw's Marywilska 44 shopping centre, marking a significant escalation in alleged Russian sabotage activities targeting Poland and its allies.
Poland has officially attributed the devastating fire at the Marywilska 44 shopping centre in Warsaw to Russian secret services. Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced that the arson, which occurred in May 2024, was ordered by a person located in Russia and coordinated by individuals disguised as Belarusian opposition activists. Several suspects have been arrested, and others are being actively pursued.
The fire destroyed approximately 80% of the shopping complex, affecting around 1,400 shops and service points. The incident is part of a broader pattern of sabotage activities attributed to Russia, targeting nations that support Ukraine in its conflict with Russia. These activities include arson, cyberattacks, and other forms of destabilization.
Poland is collaborating with Lithuanian authorities, who are investigating a similar arson attack at an IKEA store in Vilnius, believed to have been orchestrated by Russian military intelligence. The two countries are coordinating their efforts to hold accountable those responsible for these acts of sabotage.
Despite these allegations, Russia has consistently denied involvement in the arson attacks, labeling them as baseless and politically motivated.
The Polish government remains committed to prosecuting both the perpetrators and those who directed these acts of sabotage from abroad, emphasizing the importance of national security and regional stability.
