Emergency services in eastern Poland's Lublin Voivodeship are searching for a potential aerial object after residents reported two loud explosions and warning sirens overnight. The incident coincided with a series of heavy Russian airstrikes across Ukrainian territory.
Local firefighters were deployed to investigate whether an object or debris entered Polish airspace during the bombardment. Polish authorities have not officially confirmed the origin or nature of the reported blasts.
