Chief MON: "This is 1 of the hypotheses to be considered"

– Action is ongoing to explain this incidental which took place in the territory of Łukaszów. I just received the last reports from the operations commander. Firstly, the intensive activities of all services are ongoing," said national defence minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz.

Deputy Prime Minister reported that helicopters and unmanned vessels were launched to verify the area. He besides pointed out that each version must be taken into account. “We are a country bordering a place where there is simply a full-scale conflict,” he said.

The head of the MON continued: "As regards the study of the operational commander on airspace, radiolocation systems according to the first analysis have not reported a breach of airspace, which does not mean that we will not verify (events - ed.) in this respect". "And this is besides 1 of the hypotheses to be considered," he stressed.

He reported that 3 scenarios were taken into account: the intrusion of a Russian drone, a smuggler or a sabotage act. – Drones are tiny objects, due to the fact that most likely we are talking about the drone that crashed. It does not have any signs that would be military at once," added Kosiniak-Kamish.
