Zelensky slams Russia’s alleged strike on Poland as ‘very significant escalation’

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky describes Russia’s alleged missile strike that hit NATO member Poland as “a very significant escalation” of Russia’s invasion.

“Today Russian missiles hit Poland, the territory of an allied country. People died. Please accept our condolences,” Zelensky says in an address to the nation.

“The longer Russia feels this immunity, the more threats there will be against anyone within reach of Russian missiles. Firing missiles at NATO territory is a Russian attack on collective security. This is a very significant escalation. We must act,” Zelensky says.
