Nine Russian spies have been arrested in Poland on suspicion of plotting to spy on and sabotage an airport and railway used to transport Western leaders to Ukraine.
Polish authorities arrested the suspects, who are believed to have laid secret cameras along key transportation routes and attempted to target Rzeszow-Jasionka Airport, which has been used by world leaders including US President Joe Biden and current UK leader Rishi Sunak on their way to Ukraine.
The airport is strategically important due to its proximity to Ukraine and is heavily guarded by American Patriots air defense missiles. It also serves as a major logistics hub for the US and Europe with military and cargo aircraft regularly landing there.
Mariusz Kaminski, Polands interior minister, stated: The suspects conducted intelligence activities against Poland and prepared acts of sabotage at the request of Russian intelligence

Well we can bury that bullshit narrative now.
This is why supporting Ukraine is so important. if anyone thinks putin would stop there if he won the war, you are insane. we can't afford to ignore him and just HOPE he doesn't attack our NATO allies
