Russia behind cyberattack on Polish energy infrastructure

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said on Thursday, January 15, 2026, there are strong reasons to believe a group connected to Russian secret services was behind a December cyberattack on Poland’s power grid last month.

“There are many reasons to believe… that they were prepared by groups directly linked to the Russian services, I don’t want to speculate, but I don’t think we have any doubts about the sources of inspiration,” Tusk told a press conference.

“I want to say that Poland defended itself against attempts at destabilization, and its infrastructure was never threatened for a moment.”
