Polish special services work very effectively in the context of sabotage and sabotage attempts on the territory of Poland and neighboring countries, mainly Lithuania and Latvia are under threat. Yesterday I informed about the detention of nine people, tonight three more people were detained. Today, we have no doubts that the activity of the Russian and Belarusian services is significant.
