Biden had to say it was not Russian because otherwise the doomsday clock would be at like 1 femtosecond from nuclear war.
Ukraine probably fucked up, but even if it was Russia we'd never know because all the world agencies would collude to make us believe it wasn't Russia.
Also the newest news is that Duda just announced there was no warhead explosion, only of "remnants of rocket fuel".
While Ukraine maintains they did hit a Russian missile fired from the Caspian Sea and there should be also debris of the Russian missile somewhere (initial reports were also of 2 missiles but only because of witnesses hearing 2 "loud whistles" and nothing material).
There are drones and a police helicopter searching the area.
And actually not even hushing up at all as they just announced these 2 are getting a state funeral (and yes, big compensation money). And so they're turning it into another of their parades. Also typical, but good for the families at least.
A payoff is not worth a son, mother, daughter, or father
It would to be something evidently deliberate, like the Russians killed almost 200 Dutch by accident in 2014 and there was no serious response because it was obviously not done on purpose.
Hell, even deliberate attacks like the chemical and radioactive assassination shenigans in London with widespread contaminations and random people getting poisoned didn't do anything but some sanctions.
Or like this EU or CoE or OSCEE (don't even rememeber) bureau being hit actually accurately in Kyiv a few weeks ago, just nothing in response.
For all the memes, the West is actually very reluctant to heat things up.
The gov in Poland is pretty much hushing it up, actually the oppo coalition leader Tusk is more vocal (and faulting Russia "100% no matter what really happened" which is a direct quote as I remembered him saying it morning today).
But the families of these 2 guys (Polish cirizen locals in their 60s, a tractor driver and a warehouse worker) being well compensated might be very public, the gov loves showing off all kinds of stuff even big military parades and huge propaganda posters on entire buildings.
