Yeah an air defense missile that was trying to stop Russian attacks went astray.

It's unusually silent in here.

Missile was fired in Nov 2022.

By Occam's Razor an accident is FAR more likely than a grand conspiracy to eliminate an ally's important military and political target... let me check my notes... yup. A grain silo.

Didn’t Ukraine already go “oops our bad” and Poland say “no problem”?

Warsaw and NATO said that they believed that it was a Ukrainian stray, easing worries about escalation

This is just confirmation of what everyone already suspected, so yeah it's not really exciting news.

It'd be nice if Russia ended their invasion and packed up and went home. Then there wouldn't be any chance of weapons malfunctions.
