Poland blames Starlink sabotage on Russia

Two Turkish men suspected of arson attacking a Starlink ground station in Poland for Russia have been detained in Germany. This act of sabotage is part of what Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk described as "a further act of hybrid warfare," aiming to coerce and destabilize Europe. The suspects will face charges of "sabotage on behalf of a foreign intelligence service," which carries a minimum 10-year prison sentence, potentially up to life.

Polish authorities believe Russia is behind the attack, highlighting the country's frequent use of criminals for hybrid operations in Europe.
