20.08.2025The Drone's Revealing Marks
The day in Polish media was overwhelmingly dominated by the explosion of an unidentified object in Osiny, Lubelszczyzna. Initial reports of a mysterious fall escalated rapidly. By late morning, the prosecutor's office confirmed it was a military drone carrying explosives, prompting questions about Prime Minister Tusk's silence while on vacation. In the afternoon, the Ministry of National Defense and Foreign Affairs officially declared the object a Russian drone, explicitly labeling the incident a "provocation." Discussions then extended to the drone's undetected entry and its broader security implications. By evening, a significant development emerged with the prosecutor's office revealing "Korean inscriptions" on the drone's fragments. Concurrently, previous days' focus on US-Ukraine diplomacy continued, with ongoing discussions about President Trump's efforts and the future of Ukraine's territory.

Realizuje się trójetapowa strategia ukraińska, widoczna od początku pełnoskalowej wojny: bronić się zaciekle, mobilizować zachodnich sojuszników i czekać, aż na Kremlu nastąpi załamanie. Problem polega na tym, że trzeci czynnik jest niepewny. Rozmowa z Piotrem Łukasiewiczem, szefem polskiej ambasady w Kijowie w randze chargé d’affaires ad interim.

Im więcej czasu upływa od upadku i wybuchu „czegoś” na łukowskiej wsi, tym więcej wskazuje, że była to jakaś wersja irańsko-rosyjskiego drona bojowego typu Shahed. To, że wleciał aż 100 km od granicy z Białorusią, może być przypadkiem, ale nie musi. Powodów do przetestowania Polski, NATO i reakcji Zachodu akurat teraz jest wiele.
