Zharin published screenshots of Russian news in which Alexey Podberezkin, a Kremlin political analyst, claimed massive losses among Polish volunteers. In particular, he suggested "sending the bodies of Poles from the contact line in Ukraine to the Polish Embassy in Moscow". Meanwhile, 78% of Poles believe that the war in Ukraine threatens Poland's security.

This number increased by 3% compared to the data a month ago.
