Explosión en Polonia, “posiblemente no intencional"

By Jordi Bou

November 16, 2022 - La OTAN dice que la explosión de un misil en Polonia posiblemente fue un accidente causado por la respuesta de las defensas aéreas ucranianas a una lluvia de misiles rusos.

Nevertheless, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said that Moscow, not Kyiv, was ultimately to blame for starting the war in the first place and launching the attack that triggered Ukraine's defences.

Earlier, U.S. President Joe Biden said it was “unlikely” the missile had been fired from Russia.

“From the information that we and our allies have, it was an S-300 rocket made in the Soviet Union, an old rocket and there is no evidence that it was launched by the Russian side,” the Polish president Andrzej Duda said.

Two people were killed on a farm Przewodów, near the western border with Ukraine, as Ukraine came under fire from one of the biggest barrages of missile strikes of the war.

The Kremlin had insisted it had nothing to do with their deaths.
