Polish PM Mateusz Morawiecki has called an urgent meeting of Poland’s National Security and Defense Affairs committee, after two Russian missiles reportedly crashed in Polish territory, government spokesman Piotr Muller said in a Twitter post on Nov. 15.

“Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki called as a matter of urgency the Committee of the Council of Ministers for National Security and Defense Affairs,” Muller said.

Polish media outlet Radio ZET reported on Nov. 15 that two Russian cruise missiles fell in Poland’s Przewodow, Lublin district. According to the report, two people were killed.

Russia launched another massive barrage of 90 missiles at Ukraine on Nov. 15, targeting critical energy infrastructure across the country.
