本周五，波兰表示已拘留一名白俄罗斯男子，涉嫌参与一个被称为“俄罗斯间谍网络”的团伙，该团伙计划阻止携带援助乌克兰的火车运行。
波兰是乌克兰的关键盟友，此前已经报告了调查中的逮捕行动，包括今年6月拘留一名俄罗斯冰球运动员，同样是以间谍罪名拘押。
波兰内政部长马里乌什·卡明斯基在推特上说：“白俄罗斯人米哈伊尔·A参与了军事设施和港口的侦察。他还为俄罗斯进行了宣传活动。” 波兰政府最近换位为X，并补充说，这名男子是被捕的第16个与涉嫌间谍网络有关的人。
波兰政府周五表示，这名白俄罗斯人在2021年来到波兰，并与“俄罗斯联邦国民”保持联系，曾在圣彼得堡和克里米亚会晤。
声明中称：“这名男子经常改变通讯方式，并销毁其犯罪活动的痕迹。”声明还称，这位39岁的男子“部分认罪”。
声明还称，所谓的间谍网络的行动包括“准备阻止携带援助乌克兰的火车运行”，以及“煽动反乌克兰情绪或通过波兰向乌克兰提供援助”。
作为北约成员国，波兰最近对邻近的白俄罗斯可能引发的挑衅行为提出了新的担忧，白俄罗斯现在托管着瓦格纳集团的俄罗斯雇佣兵。
本周早些时候，华沙宣布两架白俄罗斯军用直升机违反了波兰领空，这促使波兰决定加强其东部边境。
波兰外交部周五发表的一份声明呼吁明斯克“紧急澄清该事件，并停止在波兰-白俄罗斯边境的所有挑衅行为”。
Poland on Friday said it had detained a Belarusian man on suspicion of being part of a "Russian spy ring" which it claimed planned to derail trains carrying aid to Ukraine.
Poland, a key ally of Ukraine, had previously reported arrests in the investigation, including that of a Russian ice hockey player in June who was also held on espionage charges.
"Belarusian Mikhail A. took part in reconnaissance of military facilities and ports. He also carried out propaganda activities for Russia," Polish Interior Minister Mariusz Kaminski said on Twitter, recently rebranded as X, adding the man was the 16th person held in connection with the alleged spy network.
The Polish government said Friday that the Belarusian came to Poland in 2021 and "maintained contacts with citizens of the Russian Federation, with whom he was meeting in St. Petersburg and Crimea."
"The man often changed the means of communication and was destroying traces of his criminal activities," the statement said, adding that the 39-year-old pleaded "partly guilty."
It also said the alleged spy ring's actions included "preparations for derailing trains carrying aid to Ukraine" as well as "inciting sentiments against the Ukrainian nation or providing aid to Ukraine by Poland."
Poland, a NATO member, has recently raised fresh concerns about possible provocations coming from neighboring Belarus, which now hosts Russian mercenaries from the Wagner Group.
Earlier this week Warsaw announced two Belarusian military helicopters had violated Polish airspace, which prompted Poland's decision to reinforce its eastern border.
In a statement published Friday, the Polish foreign ministry called on Minsk "to urgently clarify the incident... and to stop all provocations along the Polish-Belarusian border."
