Specialists from Ukraine were allowed to participate in the investigation into the circumstances of the missile falling in Poland and killing two villagers.
The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyi, said this on Thursday, speaking at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum conference, Interfax-Ukraine reports.
"Yesterday, we received confirmation that our specialists will participate in the investigation.
Until the investigation is completed, we cannot say exactly which missiles or their parts fell on the territory of Poland.
But we have seen pictures of the diameter of the crater. It couldn't be just the remains of anti-missile systems," Zelensky said.
"Everyone should understand that almost 100 missiles were fired that day. I am grateful to the world for supporting Ukraine with its air defense systems. This is not the first time that parts of a russian missile fall on the territory of another country," the president added.
Zelensky emphasized that he "doesn't know exactly" what happened this time 100%.
"The world also does not know for 100%. I am sure that it was a russian missile. We are grateful that we are not accused because we are fighting russian missiles on our territory," the Ukrainian leader emphasized.
As Rubryka reported, the head of the Bureau of International Policy under the President of Poland, Jakub Kumoch, announced that a Polish-American investigative team is working at the site of the rocket crash.
He reported that the Ukrainians also requested to give them access to the investigation.
Kumoch emphasized that "no one accuses Ukraine of deliberately bombing Polish territory."
Polish President Andrzej Duda said on November 16 that the explosions in eastern Poland were an accident.
Warsaw does not consider the incident with the rocket an attack on the country since the missile that fell, according to Duda, was probably fired by Ukrainian air defense forces.
