Polish President Andrzej Duda said Wednesday that a missile that hit Poland was likely a stray fired by Ukraine’s air defences and not a Russian strike, easing global concern that the war in Ukraine could spill across the border.

“From the information that we and our allies have, it was an S-300 rocket made the in the Soviet Union, an old rocket, and there is no evidence that it was launched by the Russian side,” Duda said during a meeting of the National Security Council.

“It is highly probable that it was fired by Ukrainian anti-aircraft defence,” he added.

The incident occurred as Russia fired scores of missiles in what Ukraine says was the biggest volley of such strikes since the start of the nine-month war.

Kyiv says it shot down most of the incoming Russian missiles with its own air defence missiles. Ukraine’s Volyn region, just across the border from Poland, was one of the several regions targeted by Russia’s countrywide attacks.
