WARSAW (Sputnik) - Polish General Prosecutor Zbigniew Ziobro confirmed on Thursday that the missile that fell on the territory of Poland in November 2022 and killed two people was Ukrainian.
"The investigation carried out by Polish prosecutors led to the conclusion that this missile was a Ukrainian missile, even Soviet... Regarding the launch site and affiliation with a specific military group, it was a Ukrainian missile," Ziobro told reporters.
Earlier on Tuesday, the media reported that the Polish investigators had confirmed that the missile was fired by Ukraine. According to the investigators, despite the lack of cooperation with Ukraine which refused to provide any data on the incident, the initial statement of the missile being launched from Russia had been proven wrong.
The report stated that it was Ukraine who fired a S-300 5v55 air defense missile which later fell in Przewodow.
