Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

PM Tusk:
The explosion was most likely intended to blow up a train on the Warsaw-Dębli line. Unfortunately, there is no doubt that we are dealing with an act of sabotage.
