More deaths and injuries in major Russian attacks on Ukraine as Poland investigates airspace violation

Poland’s defence minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz confirms it’s “most likely” it was a Kh-101 air-launched cruise missile.

“That’s the most probable hypothesis,” he says.

He says Poland is in regular contact with Nato allies on the incident.

Maj Gen Ireneusz Nowak, the Inspector of the Polish Air Force, joins in to offer a bit more detailed briefing.

He says that Russia fired 20-22 Kh-101 missiles inside Ukraine last night as part of its strikes on the country, and two missiles were identified as posing potential threat to Poland’s territory.

An F-16 fighter jet was scrambled to follow one of the missiles and observed the moment of its crash in an uninhabited area.
