On November 3, unidentified individuals with flashlights were seen approaching the Polish border from the Kaliningrad region. In response, Polish authorities dispatched additional forces and successfully thwarted what Prime Minister Donald Tusk described as a potential provocation. Speaking ahead of a National Security Council meeting, Tusk cautioned of the possibility of sabotage and armed individuals crossing into Polish territory as early as the first half of November.
This warning was echoed by General Grynkewich, Supreme Allied Commander Europe, during his visit to Poland, who also highlighted the risk of escalation during the autumn months. Tusk's decision to bolster the Border Guard with counter-terrorism units came in light of these concerns. Notably, a 55-year-old Russian man was detained in Poland for photographing transport infrastructure, suspected of acting on behalf of a foreign intelligence service.
