After a missile strike that killed two people, Poland summons the Russian ambassador | Top notch

US President Joe Biden convened an emergency meeting with world leaders who were in attendance for the G20 conference after Poland said that two persons were killed by a Russian-made missile in eastern Poland, close to Ukraine.  Russia’s ambassador to Poland was called in for an explanation. Early on Wednesday, two people were killed in explosions after a Russian-made missile touched down in eastern Poland close to Ukraine.  Russian weapons likely fell on a NATO nation for the first time since the invasion of Ukraine.  Poland, a NATO member, summoned Russia’s envoy to Warsaw for an explanation following the explosion after Moscow denied responsibility.  Poland said that a “Russian-made” missile killed two people there, prompting US President Joe Biden to convene a “emergency” meeting with G7 and NATO leaders.  Following the blasts in Poland, world leaders gathered for the G20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, had an emergency meeting on Wednesday. Joe Biden responded when asked if the missile was shot from Russia, “There is some preliminary data that refutes that.  I don’t want to say it until we have finished our investigation, but the trajectory makes it seem implausible that it was launched from Russia.”  (sic)  Foreign Affairs Minister Zbigniew Rau called the Russian ambassador to the Polish MFA and demanded an immediate and thorough explanation after Russian missiles struck the Polish village of Przewod3w, district Hrubiesz3w, and killed two civilians. Following the strikes, US President Joe Biden called an urgent summit of the G7 and NATO leaders in Indonesia.  According to Reuters, the summit was attended by leaders from the United States, Germany, Canada, Netherlands, Japan, Spain, Italy, France, and the United Kingdom. “Numerous missile assaults occurred in western Ukraine.  We have always supported Ukraine wholeheartedly, and we do so again today. …

Russia firing a missile into Poland is unlikely, but: US President Joe Biden

US President Joe Biden stated that preliminary information indicates the blast may not have been caused by a missile fired from Russia as the US and its Nato partners investigate the blast that claimed the lives of two individuals in Poland.  When asked if it was too soon to say the missile was fired from Russia, Biden responded, “I don’t want to say that until we properly study it but it is doubtful in the lines of the trajectory that it was fired from Russia but we’ll see.” Following an emergency meeting on Wednesday following the blast in Poland, world leaders attending…
