Poland is also increasimg activation of military.

Many NATO countries are now talking like escalation is coming because of Poland.

Hoping its the paper tiger again.

Getting tired of every week being like this over something different.

Poland claimed the US told them it was a cruise missile, but according to a twitter post the US has denied this

The remains of the explosion don't line up, at all, with the pattern left by a cruise missile. Rather it looks much more like a shoulder-fired surface-to-air missile, which have crash-landed in Poland before during the course of this war - mind you they're being used by Ukraine, not Russia (who prefers to use more sophisticated means for taking down Ukrainian aircraft)

What seems to be happening is a conservative Polish tabloid has baselessly accused Russia of targetting a civilian target in Poland, and NATO-aligned news sources have ran with the story. This isn't unlike DailyMail claiming Covid started in China because "evil yellow man eat bat"

Russia starts their long awaiting invasion of NATO by... blowing up small part of random village in the middle of nowhere and then absolutely nothing, apparently.
