A Polish man has been arrested on allegations of being ready to help Russia’s military intelligence in an alleღged plot to assassinate Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Polish pro🐈secutors said Thursday.
The office of Poland’s National Prosecutor said in a statement that the man, identified only as Pawel K., was accused of being prepared t🅘o pass airport security information to Russian agents and that he was arrested in Poland on Wednesday.
The man was seeking contact with Russians directly involved in the war in Ukraine and was expected to pass on detai♐led information about the Rzeszow-Jasionka airport in south-eastern Poland, near the border with Ukraine, which is the gateway for international military and humanitarian supplies for Ukraine. The airport is under the control of U.S. troops.
If convicted, the man could face up to eight years in priℱson, the statement said.
European Union member Poland has been a staunch supporter of neig꧅hboring Ukraine and Zelenskyy in fending off Russ✱ia’s aggression of more than two years.
