An explosion at an armaments factory in Poland killed one and injured several, local media reported on Monday.
The explosion started a fire and killed a 59-year-old worker at the Mesko weapon factory in the Polish city of Skarżysko-Kamienna.
Another employee was hospitalised after inhaling smoke, though his condition is not life-threatening, local authorities said.
“We had an explosion at the rocket fuel centre, which was put into operation a few years ago,” said the plant’s chairwoman Elżbieta Śreniawska.
The cause of the incident is currently under investigation.
The factory — owned by the state-run Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa — manufactures defence products, anti-tank missiles and small arms ammunition.
Poland has provided extensive military support for Ukraine, significantly increasing production for many local arms factories.

Shofar (Ram’s Horn) made under perilous conditions in the Skarzysko-Kamienna forced labor camp in Poland in 1943
Judaism revolves around the observance and celebration of life cycle events and holidays
Jews observe special days with the purpose of connecting to their cherished heritage
surges in antisemitism sometimes forced Jews to mark these occasions at great sacrifice and danger to themselves and their communities
they often risked their lives in order to maintain their Jewish culture they cherished so dearly
The Jewish New Year is a period rich in tradition as well as personal introspection
this period constitutes much of the essence of Jewish culture
In 1943, Moshe (Ben-Dov) Winterter, from the Polish city of Piotrkow, was an inmate in the German Nazi forced labor camp Skarzysko-Kamienna. There he worked in a metal workshop of a local armaments factory. In anticipation for Rosh Hashanah, he crafted a shofar from a ram's horn in order to usher in the Jewish New Year
The idea of making a shofar was initiated by the Radoszyce Rabbi
He yearned to fulfill the commandment of blowing the shofar for the New Year
as required by Jewish law for the making of a shofar
A Polish guard was bribed and brought a horn to the camp
Only in exchange for a further bribe did he bring a ram’s horn
Preparing an item that was not an armament in the metal workshop
or even carrying something considered contraband from the workshop to the barracks
carried with it a penalty of immediate death
and on the eve of the holiday brought the shofar to the Rabbi
the inmates gathered for prayers and to hear the sounds of the shofar
Moshe Winterter kept the shofar with him throughout his incarceration until he was transferred to the labor camp at Czestochowa
When he was taken from there to Buchenwald
the shofar remained in Czestochowa until the camp was liberated
the shofar was passed on to the local Jewish community and later taken to the United States
Winterter immigrated to Israel after the war
he assisted in its transfer to Yad Vashem for eternal safekeeping
Moshe Winterter's shofar is housed at Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Center, alongside tens of thousands of other personal wartime artifacts and the stories behind them. The shofar is now part of a special online exhibition of some of these precious items
which offer a glimpse into some of the ways that Jews marked the New Year before
during and immediately after the Holocaust
The Yad Vashem website had recently undergone a major upgrade

Do wybuchu doszło w centrum paliw rakietowych
Jedna z nich zdołała opuścić pomieszczenie o własnych siłach
natomiast dwie pozostałe potrzebowały pomocy
- Mamy wybuch na centrum paliw rakietowych
które kilka lat temu zostało oddane do użytku - potwierdziła w rozmowie z RMF FM prezes zakładów Elżbieta Śreniawska
Na miejscu pracują strażacy kontynuując akcję dogaszania pożaru i zabezpieczania terenu
a także lądował śmigłowiec Lotniczego Pogotowia Ratunkowego
Ostatecznie rannego przetransportowano do szpitala karetką pogotowia
Władze zakładów prowadzą dochodzenie w sprawie przyczyn zdarzenia
bo to jest nowoczesne centrum - podkreśliła prezes Śreniawska
że pożar po eksplozji jest obecnie dogaszany
W związku z tragicznymi wydarzeniami jakie miały miejsce na terenie zakładów- otrzymaliśmy komunikat prasowy od Mesko S.A i PGZ Jego treść dostępna jest w TYM MIEJSCU
