This weekend there was one confirmed act of sabotage on Polish railways and one incident highly likely to be sabotage, Polish Interior Minister Marcin Kierwinski said on Monday after an explosion damaged a Polish railway track on a route to Ukraine.

Polish Special Services Minister Tomasz Siemoniak added during the same press conference that chances are very high that the people who conducted the sabotage were acting on orders of foreign intelligence services, without naming any specific country.
