Officers of the Internal Security Agency (ABW) detained Jarosław A. who was charged with signalling readiness to operate to the advantage of the Russian intelligence against Poland with the aim of transferring information, which could constitute a major injury for the Republic of Poland. For the activity in-question, the man faces up to 8 years of imprisonment.

The operation destabilizing the Polish border with Belarus is carried out using methods typical of hybrid aggression. From the very beginning, the Polish services assessed that these actions were a threat to the state.

On August 8th, 2022, the Prime Minister of Poland appointed Col. Bartosz Jarmuszkiewicz for the position of the Head of the Foreign Intelligence Agency. The candidate had earlier been approved by the President of Poland, the Council for Special Services at the Chancellery of the Prime Minister and the Special Services Committee at the lower house of the Polish Parliament.

Lack of procedures, cheating soldiers, collapse of morale in the army and the authority of commanders, respect for the efficiency of the Ukrainian army - another interview intercepted by the Foreign Intelligence Agency shows the real situation in the Russian military and proves that soldiers are aware of the gap between the facts and the lies of the Kremlin. An overheard Russian soldier says directly: "propaganda works here".

From the beginning of its aggression against Ukraine, Russia began building a network of prisons and filtration camps to which Ukrainians are sent en masse. Those who pass the verification are forcibly sent to Russia, where they are often forced to be recruited into the Russian army and sent to the front. People who raise objections to the invaders are subjected to torture.

In recent days, Russian aggression has focused on binding Ukrainian forces with fire. The Kremlin is carrying out deliberate actions against civilians. Ukraine, on the other hand, focuses on attacking valuable military targets.

The foreign services behind the "GhostWriter" disinformation operation are continuing their actions against Poland. Activity designed to destabilize public opinion is also conducted in other Western countries.

Poland's experience and up-to-date knowledge indicate that Russia will continue the war against Ukraine and will remain a country that is aggressive towards other states. Russia will also try to weaken NATO. A strategic objective of the Kremlin is to destroy or completely humiliate the Alliance.

In the middle of 2021 a hybrid operation of the Lukashenko’s regime begun. The Polish border was under migratory pressure which aimed at creating a permanent artificial route of illegal migration, via Belarus, into the European Union.

Recent increased rocket and artillery shelling from the armed forces of the Russian Federation, targeted at civilian facilities, are deliberate and directly connected to strategic objectives of Russia towards Ukraine.
