(Reuters) -Russia’s defence ministry on Tuesday denied reports that Russian missiles had hit Polish territory, describing them as “a deliberate provocation aimed at escalating the situation”.
It added in a statement: “No strikes on targets near the Ukrainian-Polish state border were made by Russian means of destruction.”
Wreckage reportedly found at the scene “has nothing to do with Russian weapons”, it said.
