“The scale of destruction of the explosive device is so extensive that we are unable to precisely and unequivocally determine where this drone comes from or who manufactured it,” said District Prosecutor in Lublin, Grzegorz Trusiewicz. Earlier, Foreign Ministry spokesman Paweł Wroński told Reuters that a Shahed drone in the Russian version had fallen in the Lublin region.
Shortly before 7 p.m., District Prosecutor in Lublin, Grzegorz Trusiewicz, presented the latest findings concerning the drone that exploded last night near the village of Osiny in the Lublin region. According to an expert from the Military Institute of Armament Technology in Zielonka, who examined the site, the extent of the destruction does not allow for a precise determination of the drone’s origin.
“Indeed, on the largest remaining fragment—so far the only sizable part of the engine that has been found—inscriptions were revealed, probably in Korean. But here I must stress that this is only a probability. We are not able to identify the manufacturer or the specific type of device we are dealing with,” prosecutor Trusiewicz said.
He emphasized that inspections will continue and that services present at the site will keep searching for other fragments of the equipment. “We will be looking for elements that are important for this investigation and that will, in an unequivocal and indisputable manner, allow us to establish what kind of device (we are dealing with—editor’s note) and from which country this drone originates,” he declared.
It is worth noting that earlier, Foreign Ministry spokesman Paweł Wroński had stated that a Russian version of a Shahed drone was found in the Lublin region. The question remains: where could he have obtained such information, given that experts on the ground still do not know who the device belonged to?
Prosecutor Trusiewicz declined to comment on Wroński’s statement.
