No outright denial from Moscow, but an offer to discuss it with Warsaw
The Kremlin said earlier that it would be a matter for the Russian defence ministry to comment on what happened in Poland.
Now it has.
In a statement, Russia’s military says that last night it carried out “a mass strike” on military-industrial targets in Western Ukraine, including with attack drones.
It goes on to insist that “there had been no plans to target facilities on the territory of Poland".
“The maximum range of the Russian drones that allegedly crossed into Poland does not exceed 700 km,” the statement continues.
“Nevertheless, we are ready to hold consultations with the Polish defence ministry on this subject.”
“No plans to…” isn’t quite the same as “didn’t…”
So, no outright denial from Moscow. But an offer to discuss the matter further with Warsaw.
