Poland Calls WarsawLublin Rail Blast an Act of Sabotage on Ukraine Supply Route

Authorities have opened a criminal probe with military teams scanning 120 kilometers of the corridor for further threats.

Overview

  • Prime Minister Donald Tusk said an explosive device destroyed track near the village of Mika on the WarsawLublin line, which he described as crucial for aid shipments to Ukraine.
  • Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński said evidence at the site indicates the blast was triggered via a cable, and no injuries were reported after a train driver flagged irregularities.
  • Investigators are examining two additional disruptions on the route near Puławy, including damaged overhead lines that halted a passenger train carrying 475 people and a reported track obstruction.
  • Prosecutors, the Internal Security Agency and police are leading the investigation, with the defense ministry deploying the army to inspect roughly 120 km toward the Ukrainian border.
  • NATO, the EU and Ukraine expressed support and offered contact with Polish authorities, while officials noted a high likelihood of foreign involvement but made no formal attribution.
