Eight suspected of sabotage detained in Poland, says PM
In recent days, the Internal Security Agency (ABW) has apprehended eight people suspected of planning acts of sabotage in Poland, Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Tuesday.
In a post on X Tusk wrote that the suspects had been detained in various locations across Poland and are now under investigation.
Later the same day, Poland's Special Services Coordinator Tomasz Siemoniak wrote on the same platform that the "cases referred to" by Tusk involved surveillance of military facilities and critical infrastructure as well as preparations for sabotage and "direct attacks" on those sites.
ABW, we współpracy z innymi służbami, zatrzymała w ostatnich dniach osiem osób w różnych częściach kraju, podejrzewanych o przygotowania aktów dywersji. Sprawa jest rozwojowa. Trwają dalsze czynności operacyjne.

"The ABW is working in close collaboration with the SKW (Poland's Military Counter-Intelligence Service - PAP), the police and prosecutors," Siemoniak added. (PAP)
