It was a simple coordinate mistake by the Russians. Let me show you.
First, the coordinates for the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv. 50.4501N 30.5234E
Link
Next, the coordinates for the Ukrainian city of Lviv. 49.842957N 24.031E
Link
Now take the N coordinate from Kyiv and the E coordinate from Lviv and you get right in the area in Poland where the missile hit.

Someone fire the intern inputting coordinates.

It was a Ukraine missile.
The real reason is because they want WWIII.

I'm curious, would range still be an issue if it was launched from Belarus?
it is highly probable that one of these missiles unfortunately fell on Polish territory,” said Polish President Andrzej Duda. “There is nothing, absolutely nothing, to suggest that it was an intentional attack on Poland.”

They screwed up and hit Poland, so of course they blamed Russia.
Even Poland's president has said this.

The explanation being given by NATO is most likely just a way of not escalating the conflict. Smart.
