Fire hits Polish drone plant supplying Ukraine after unidentified person seen

On August 31, a fire broke out at a drone manufacturing facility called WB Electronics in Skarzysko-Kamienna, Poland, which supplies drones to both Ukrainian and Polish military forces. According to Onet, surveillance cameras captured an unidentified individual wearing a balaclava on the plant's grounds just prior to the incident.

The person allegedly climbed over a fence and was seen carrying an abandoned backpack and a long-sleeved shirt near the facility. Police were alerted by an operator from the security company monitoring the site, as sensors triggered an alert, potentially indicating unauthorized access. Russian intelligence agencies have been intensifying efforts to bolster security around critical infrastructure in neighboring countries, including Poland.

In an effort to avoid spreading misinformation, the Internal Security Agency is conducting a thorough investigation into the possible sabotage of the drone plant.
