Details
As noted, the investigation was suspended due to the lack of cooperation of the Ukrainian side in clarifying the circumstances of the tragedy.
The prosecutor's office explained the decision by "long-term obstacles to further procedures, which consist of waiting for the fulfillment of requests for information on international legal assistance".
The suspension of the proceedings means that it is impossible to definitively establish the circumstances of the incident, and therefore to determine who is responsible for the deaths of Polish citizens.
Poland sent inquiries to Ukraine several months ago to find out where the missile that fell in Przewodów came from and by whom.
