"Firefighters are securing the crater that was discovered on Thursday morning in Tarnawa-Kolonia (Lublin Voivodeship)," said Captain Tomasz Stachyra, spokesman for the Commander of the State Fire Service of the Lublin Voivodeship. Earlier, services received a report of an explosion.
The Operational Command of the Polish Armed Forces reported that at 3:40 a.m. local time on Thursday, an unidentified object was detected in Polish airspace. An F-16 fighter jet was scrambled for reconnaissance and interception of the object. At 3:46 a.m., the object disappeared from radar.
The likely crash site was near the town of Tarnawa-Kolonia in the Lublin Voivodeship.
"We were woken up by a noise — we heard something flying very low. I looked at the clock — it was 3:47. Then we heard a loud explosion, and it sounded like something broke in the air. It didn't sound like a storm. My husband went out to see what happened. It turned out that something had fallen on an agricultural field near our buildings, causing a strong explosion. Sirens quickly started wailing, and firefighters from the Volunteer Fire Service arrived. We also heard planes and helicopters flying overhead," a resident living a kilometer from the scene told Onet.
Onet Wiadomości has published photos and videos from the scene.
