Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned on Thursday that Poland's border crossings with Ukraine could become potential targets for Russian attacks.
Tusk made the statement after Russia had struck international border crossing points between Ukraine and other countries. In light of these developments, the head of the Polish government noted that his country is taking into account the possibility that crossing points along the Polish-Ukrainian border could also become subject to similar threats.
Poland is one of Ukraine's main supporters and a key transit hub for military and humanitarian aid shipments directed to Ukraine. This role is precisely what makes Poland's border infrastructure potentially vulnerable to Russian military threats.
Tusk's statement was framed as a warning rather than a report of an attack that had already occurred on Polish territory. No further details or specific protective measures for the border were mentioned.
