 Polish Defense Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz said that the unknown object that fell and exploded in a cornfield near the village of Łuków County, Lublin Voivodeship, on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday is a Russian drone, Onet.pl reported on Wednesday.

"Russia is again provoking NATO countries. After the incidents with drones that occurred in Romania, Lithuania, and Latvia, we are again dealing with a Russian drone. This is a special moment when discussions about peace are ongoing," he said at a press conference at the Defense Ministry.
