Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk condemned an explosion on a key railway line as an "unprecedented act of sabotage." The incident occurred on a railway connecting Warsaw to Lublin, which is vital for transporting aid to Ukraine.

In a post on X, Tusk confirmed that an explosive device had destroyed the railway track. He stated, "Unfortunately, the worst fears have been confirmed." However, he did not identify any suspects or motives behind the attack.

Tusk emphasized the significance of the railway line, noting its role in supporting Ukraine. He said, "This route is also crucially important for delivering aid to Ukraine." Emergency services and the prosecutor's office are currently investigating the scene.

In a follow-up post, Tusk reiterated the seriousness of the situation, calling it a direct threat to the security of Poland and its citizens. He vowed, "We will catch the perpetrators, regardless of who their backers are."

Polish Interior Minister Marcin Kierwinski supported Tusk's claims, stating, "There is no doubt that we are dealing with an act of sabotage." He mentioned that another section of the railway, where tracks were also damaged, is under investigation.

The damage was discovered during a routine inspection on Sunday morning after a train driver reported irregularities. Following this report, Tusk suggested that sabotage might be the cause of the damage.
