A missile has killed two people in Poland near its border with Ukraine. But the Polish President Andrzej Duda has said it appears to have been an “unfortunate accident”, not an “intentional attack”.
Key questions remain around the strike which came amid a barrage of Russian air strikes across Ukraine. Mr Duda has said the hit, which killed two people on Tuesday evening, was not an attack on his country by Russia and there is a “high probability” Ukrainian defence forces were involved.
US President Joe Biden, who said the missile was “unlikely” to have been fired from Russia, called an emergency meeting of G7 and Nato leaders over fears that a deliberate attack on Nato member Poland could trigger a collective military response by the alliance - called Article 5.
