The only confirmed damage from what Poland claims was a Russian drone incursion was actually caused by a Polish missile which struck a residential building by mistake, Rzeczpospolita has reported, citing sources.
Polish officials last week reported at least 19 violations of the country’s airspace by drones, saying up to four UAVs had been downed while accusing Moscow of being behind the incident. Russia has rejected the accusation, insisting its drones only strike Ukrainian military-related facilities and noting that Western leaders *“accuse Russia of provocations on a daily basis, most often declining to offer any arguments.”*
Rzeczpospolita reported on Tuesday that most of the drones involved in the incident were not carrying explosives and caused no damage. However, one exception was in the village of Wyryki Wola near the border with Belarus, where what was described by Poland as an *“unidentified flying object”* crashed into a private home, damaging the roof but without causing casualties.

Western media reports claimed that the home had been hit by a Russian drone. Investigators have declined to say what exactly struck the building, only stating that the object was not identified as a drone.
Rzeczpospolita, however, cited sources in Poland’s security agencies as saying the object was in fact an AIM-120 AMRAAM air-to-air missile fired from a Polish F-16 jet. The missile reportedly suffered a guidance system malfunction and did not explode only because its safety devices prevented detonation.
The missile, around three meters long and weighing over 150kg, is said to have struck the house after being fired in an attempt to shoot down a drone.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk did not comment on the report but scrambled to take aim at Moscow. *“The entire responsibility for the damage to the house in Wyryki rests with… Russia… Hands off Polish soldiers,”* he said.
On Sunday, Tusk also complained <www.rt.com/news/624668-poland-wave-antipathy-ukraine/> that the drone incident had caused a wave of *“antipathy towards a struggling Ukraine,”* claiming, without proof, that this was being fueled by Moscow. He stressed that Warsaw’s goal is *“to stem this tide,”* portraying it as a *“test of patriotism.”*
