Poland Says Explosive Sabotage Damaged WarsawLublin Rail Line

Investigators are working on a line critical to shipments for Ukraine.

Overview

  • A train driver reported a heavily damaged track near the village of Mika on Sunday, prompting a suspension of traffic on the affected section.
  • Prime Minister Donald Tusk said an explosive charge destroyed a rail and that a second damaged point was found further east toward Lublin.
  • Tusk described the act as deliberate sabotage and said the device most likely aimed to blow up a train on the route.
  • No injuries were reported, and an approaching train carried two passengers and several railway employees who were evacuated safely.
  • Prosecutors and intelligence services opened an investigation with no public attribution so far, as officials note the route’s importance for supplies bound for Ukraine and recall earlier alleged sabotage plots.
