The Druzhba oil pipeline, one of the key routes for Russian oil supplies to Europe, has been damaged in Poland. According to the republic's State Fire Service, the incident was accompanied by an oil leak. Despite the situation that has arisen, experts assure that there is no threat of fire or explosion.
The incident was recorded in one of the central regions of the country. Rescue services quickly arrived at the scene and carried out the necessary work to eliminate the consequences.
According to preliminary data, experts have not yet named the exact cause of the damage, but the main versions include the possibility of sabotage. This assumption is related to increased activity in the energy sector of Europe, especially against the backdrop of geopolitical tensions in the region.
The Druzhba oil pipeline is considered one of the largest and oldest transport corridors for oil supplies from Russia to Eastern and Central European countries. Its damage could affect supply volumes and cause temporary interruptions in oil supplies to a number of European countries.
