Moscow Lashes Out with Desperate Sabotage Attempt on Polish Railways

Silicon Bites Ep270 | News Update - Day 1,363 - 2025-11-17 | A railway track in eastern Poland, that you’ve probably never heard of, has been the target of apparent Russia hybrid terror operations. This track would have remained a matter of limited awareness to the world at large, but somebody blew it up. Over the weekend, an explosion ripped through the Warsaw–Lublin line near the village of Mika — a line that doesn’t just carry commuters and freight, but weapons and aid headed to Ukraine’s front. Poland’s prime minister is calling it “an unprecedented act of sabotage”. Investigators say it’s almost certainly the work of “foreign state services”. And if you’re thinking Russia, you are likely not alone. This isn’t a one-off. It follows Russian drone incursions into Polish airspace, arson attacks, cyber-operations, and a steadily escalating hybrid war aimed at the logistics lifeline that keeps Ukraine fighting and Europe secure. Today’s episode is about that shadow war – and what it means when the supply routes to Ukraine get blown apart, even though it’s not Ukrainian territory and infrastructure, and how Russia is launching an unprecedented informational campaign to muddy the waters and try to turn Poles against supporting Ukraine. ---------- SOURCES: The Guardian – “Poland railway blast was unprecedented act of sabotage, says Donald Tusk” (17 Nov 2025) Reuters – “Poland faced one confirmed, one highly probable railway sabotage act” (17 Nov 2025) AP News – “Polish prime minister says rail line explosion was ‘sabotage’” (17 Nov 2025) The Washington Post – “Rail explosion in Poland was ‘sabotage,’ prime minister says” (17 Nov 2025) Kyiv Independent – “‘Act of sabotage’ — Explosion hits Polish railway track used for Ukraine aid shipments, Warsaw says” (17 Nov 2025) The Guardian (live blog) – “Foreign state services behind Polish rail sabotage, says minister – Europe live” (17 Nov 2025) Sky News – “Railway bombing an ‘unprecedented act of sabotage’, Poland’s PM says” (17 Nov 2025) The Guardian – “Russia accused of trying to hack border security cameras to disrupt Ukraine aid” (21 May 2025) The Washington Post – “Russia recruited operatives online to target weapons crossing Poland” (18 Aug 2023) AP / Reuters / local outlets – coverage of Marywilska 44 arson and attribution to Russian intelligence (May 2025) Al Jazeera, Euronews, Notes from Poland and others on recent arrests and sabotage plots in Poland (Oct 2025) NATO, UN, and media reporting on Russian drone incursions into Polish airspace (Sept 2025) Meduza and Euronews on earlier Russian missile and drone violations of Polish and Baltic airspace. ---------- SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtain https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurta...
