Russia Strikes Near Polish Border, Disrupting Key Ukraine-NATO Crossing
Russia struck a truck near the Dorohusk-Yahodyn crossing between Ukraine and Poland, temporarily disrupting one of Ukraine’s major links with the EU and NATO. Moscow said it was targeting infrastructure supporting European military cargo, marking another attack close to NATO territory.
Ukraine’s western crossings are crucial for trade, humanitarian supplies and Western military assistance. Repeated Russian attacks close to NATO borders increase the possibility of spillover and could force European governments to strengthen protection of logistics corridors.
Poland and other NATO members are likely to increase monitoring around border infrastructure while Ukraine seeks stronger air defences for its western regions. Russia has also signalled willingness to restart trilateral talks involving Ukraine and the U.S. in October.
