The landing site was discovered by Polish authorities alongside scattered debris after reports of an explosion near the south-east village of Tarnawa-Kolonia.
Fighter jets were scrambled, but Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk said there was no immediate danger as the missile fell in an uninhabited area.
Ukrainian foreign minister Andrii Sybiha wrote on X: ‘Overnight, a Russian Kh-101 cruise missile crossed into Poland as part of Russia’s massive strike against Ukraine, violating NATO airspace.’
Tusk said the object ‘looks like’ a Russian missile but authorities did not have ‘100% certainty’ what kind of missile it was.
