2022 missile explosion in Poland
On 15 November 2022, a missile struck the territory of Poland at the village of Przewodów near the border with Ukraine, killing two people. The incident occurred during an attack on Ukrainian cities and energy facilities by Russia. It was the first incident of a missile (vis-a-vis prior UAV incursions) fired from Ukrainian army landing and exploding within NATO territory during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Initially Ukraine accused Russia of striking Poland, while United States claimed that the missile was likely to have been an air defence missile fired by Ukrainian forces at an incoming Russian missile. This was later confirmed in September 2023 by the Polish Prosecutor's Office, which stated that the explosion was caused by an out of control air-defence missile S-300.
