Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and a number of European officials were in the area where the Russian anti-aircraft missile struck the Ukrainian-Polish border.. Der Spiegel writes about this.
The Russian anti-aircraft missile struck the area of the Yagodin-Dorohusk border checkpoint. As a result of the impact, trucks were burnt, and the gas station complex was also damaged.
At that moment, Boris Johnson, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz's advisor Sauter, security advisers of other European governments and members of the Bundestag passed through the area on a special train.
The train was stopped after the ATS warning. The attendants woke up the passengers and prepared for a possible evacuation. After some time, the alarm was cancelled.
All passengers of the train were unhurt.
Let's remind that the footage of the attack on the Ukrainian-Polish border checkpoint was published earlier.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andriy Sibyga called the incident "Putin's terrorism" and declared that the Russian threat is already "knocking on the doors of the EU and NATO".
He called on his colleagues to intensify the pressure on Russia, establish a complete trade embargo, ban the entry of Russian citizens and tighten sanctions against the Russian military-industrial complex.
Earlier, the Prime Minister of Poland, Donald Tusk, announced that he had received information from intelligence, according to which Russia is preparing strikes in the direction of border checkpoints.
It is noted that one of the close advisors of German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz, national security advisers of several EU countries, deputies of the German Bundestag, as well as diplomats and scientists were also on the train.
