Russian missile warhead found in Poland after 6 months
A warhead from a Russian missile that fell in December last year has been found near Bydgoszcz, Poland. It was made of concrete and had no explosives
Head of the Polish President's Office Paweł Szrot said this, Polsat News reports.
“As for the warhead, it has been found and is being examined by the relevant institutions. It is special because it is made of concrete,” said Paweł Szrot.
He also said that he “assumes that it was installed in such a way that this old model of missile could mislead Ukrainian air defense.”
The head of the office also said that no explosives were found in the warhead.
“This missile cannot fly without a warhead, so someone has embedded such a pinnacle of Russian technological thought,” he said in a statement.
