LIVE: Poland Holds Major Military Parade on Armed Forces Day

Poland marks Armed Forces Day with a major military parade in Warsaw, highlighting the country’s armed forces and thanking service members. The event will feature troops, military vehicles, and ships, with participation from key government and military officials.

Russian intelligence has tripled its cyberattacks on Poland this year and Warsaw is steeling itself for an attempt to shut down the water supply or the power grid, the country’s deputy prime minister has said.

In an interview with The Times, Krzysztof Gawkowski, who also runs the digital ministry, said there had been more than 100,000 attempts to compromise Poland’s computer networks last year, equating to roughly 300 a day.

On Thursday, a few days after the interview, his warning was vindicated as he announced that the security services had foiled a cyberattack on the water and sewage systems of a “large city” at the last minute. Gawkowski argues that Russia is locked in an ongoing “war” with Poland in cyberspace.

In recent months, security agencies from the US, the UK and more than a dozen other countries have warned that the Russian state and its proxies are stepping up an already intense “cyber campaign” against western targets involved in providing aid to Ukraine.
