Poland warns Russia seeks to exploit Ukraine tensions with sabotage operations

Siemoniak noted an increase in Russian information warfare in recent weeks, with online actors amplifying disputes. He also revealed that individuals commissioned by Russian services have shown interest in various facilities significant from a Polish-Ukrainian perspective. This interest extends beyond military sites and critical infrastructure to include aid organizations and other locations involved in Polish-Ukrainian cooperation.

While authorities are not indicating an imminent plot, they are preparing for attempts by Russia to exploit existing tensions. Siemoniak broadly mentioned that Western intelligence agencies are concerned about the risk of Russian hybrid or even kinetic attacks targeting Poland and the Baltic states, emphasizing that Russia possesses an arsenal of such actions and is actively preparing them.
