Russia's FSB said on November 11 it had detained two Polish citizens in Kaliningrad on espionage charges, and native speakers doubt its Polish-language messages. The agency said a Polish intelligence "spy network" had operated in the region and that the two "agents" had collected and passed on information about Russian military personnel and Defense Ministry facilities. Regional court statements confirm both detainees are Polish citizens; one was arrested on July 30 and the other on October 28. The FSB released video of part of a WhatsApp exchange between a "Polish intelligence agent and his handler," which its translation showed discussing the appearance, age and rank of an officer working at the border. Agentstvo reported that two native Polish speakers examined the exchange. One told the outlet: "No, it doesn't sound like native Polish. It looks like a translation, especially the green messages." Agentstvo also said a user on Polish-language X under the account KrzysiekWSK had drawn attention to screenshots from the FSB video, raising doubts about the materials' authenticity.
