Speaking at a press conference, Prosecutor Grzegorz Trusiewicz said a crater measuring around 5–6 metres wide and 50 centimetres deep had formed at the epicentre of the blast. It is unclear whether the drone exploded mid-air or on impact.
“Recovered parts of the drone indicate the use of explosives. We cannot yet specify the type, quantity or composition, but there is a very high probability - almost certainty - that an explosion occurred,” Trusiewicz said.
When asked whether the device was a so-called “suicide drone,” the prosecutor did not confirm this. He added that an expert in military armaments is being sent to the site and may be able to determine the precise type of device.
According to the latest statement from Poland’s National Security Bureau (BBN), the President is being kept up to date on the situation. Further updates are expected.
