I wouldn't be surprised if Russia intentionally lobbed this missile right on the border as a "test" to see what NATO would do.

Edit: This was way off, supposedly NATO doesn't believe it originated in Russia.

I read Moldova doesn’t have power

So.. Hungary doesn't have energy anymore because one of the gas conducts was bombed. Hungary was the only country still buying from Russia and therefore didn't look into alternative sources.

This is like karma making a full 360°. 

Not gas, but oil. Fortunately the Turkish gas pipeline is still intact, because it cannot be fully replaced. The petroleum pipeline can be replaced if the flow is not restored quickly, but in this case additional technological problems are expected. The country also has reserves for a few months.

And the whole situation is reversed. Since enough alternative pipelines with other countries were not built before, it is difficult to buy elsewhere now, since gas cannot be delivered without pipelines.

There has been no confirmation Russia fired the missiles. It might have been an error from the Ukrainian defence system. That's also what they told at the news here this morning

Now it seems that the incident was caused by a malfunction in Ukraine's air defences, so no!

But if they were actually Russian missiles as it seemed yesterday, it was pretty clean cut something that could trigger Article 5.

Biden says missile that hit Poland probably not fired from Russia

Asked whether it was too early to say if the missile was fired from Russia, Biden said: "There is preliminary information that contests that. I don't want to say that until we completely investigate it, but it is unlikely in the lines of the trajectory that it was fired from Russia, but we’ll see."

The Associated Press news agency, which had initially cited a senior U.S. intelligence official as saying Russian missiles had caused the blast in Poland, later quoted U.S. officials as saying initial findings were now that blast was caused by Ukrainian air defence missiles.

Best case scenario is if the missiles were Ukrainian (hope to God this is it!).

I'm starting to think this was right, and if it is it will open a huge Pandora box.

seems unlikely; their leader, murderous, bloodthirsty and cruel as he is, is also a coward. He be letting the Kremlin do anything in this war using his territory, but so far it seems he's pissing his breeches every time Kremlin so much as hints at him sending his army to aide Russia

So they were Ukrainian missiles that fell on Poland by accident. I knew it..
