Russia targets missiles at NATO member Poland causing two deaths

Russia has tonight (Tuesday) reportedly launched missiles on Poland, killing two people. The strike on the NATO member state was confirmed by a senior US intelligence officer.

The rockets have fallen in a village in Eastern Poland, Przewodow, which is close to the border with Ukraine. It was reported in the local press that the rockets were 'strays' and hit a farm where grain was drying. Police and the army raced to the scene in the aftermath, reports MirrorOnline.

Russian missiles have now killed in a NATO country during its ongoing war in Ukraine, a step which could cause severe ramifications in the conflict. It's not yet known if Poland will choose to invoke NATO's article 5.
