One of the gifts, that the head of the National Police of Poland received during his working visit to Ukraine on December 11-12, exploded in Warsaw, in the building of the Police Headquarters.

This was reported by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Poland on December 15.

The explosion occurred at 07:50 on Wednesday, December 14, in a room adjacent to the office of the head of the Polish police Jarosław Szymczyk. He received minor injuries and is in hospital for examination. The Polish side appealed to the Ukrainian side with a request to provide an explanation.
