The incident occurred on the premises of a grain dryer at around 3:40 p.m. The cause of the incident remains unknown. Senior Captain Marcin Lebiedowicz, spokesperson for the District Headquarters of the State Fire Service in Hrubieszów, confirms that the incident took place and that two people died at the scene.

Update
According to the latest findings, a missile from the Ukrainian air defence system probably fell on Polish territory. It had been launched in defence against Tuesday’s massive Russian missile attack on Ukraine. It was therefore likely an unfortunate accident.
