Kremlin Vows to Keep Striking Ukraine After Russian Attack Near Polish Border
The Kremlin said Russia will continue striking targets across Ukraine after a Russian attack hit a railway locomotive just 2 km from the Polish border. Poland called the incident an escalation, while NATO and the EU vowed continued support for Kyiv.
On September 14, Poland's Deputy Interior Minister Czesław Mroczek warned citizens living near the Ukrainian border to prepare shelters in case of Russian attacks. Mroczek emphasized that Russia's strikes on western Ukraine pose a "very serious" threat to Poland, aimed at disrupting the nation's transport capacity and logistics routes.
He advised residents in border areas to identify suitable hiding spots, recommending rooms connected to basements or garages in detached houses, and protected spaces in apartment buildings. The deputy interior minister also mentioned an app called "Where to Shelter?" containing over 80,000 such locations. Recently, Russian forces targeted a passenger train near Poland's border in Ukraine's Volyn Oblast, causing concerns about potential attacks on Poland's border crossings.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk previously expressed concerns about possible Russian attacks on the country's borders, citing a "fairly precise report" from the CIA.
