An Ikea warehouse representative reportedly telephoned military officials and inquired about “when they would collect their mines.” As one does.

    In June 2024, a train carrying more than 1,000 tons of explosives was improperly unloaded by Polish troops, the report said, who mistakenly left the anti-tank mines to continue their rail-bound journey around the country until they were eventually offloaded in the furniture behemoth’s warehouse.

    Kępczyński, meanwhile, reportedly kept the mishap from his superiors while furnishing subsequent supply reports that featured false numbers.

    That approach appeared to have worked — at least until an Ikea warehouse representative telephoned military officials and inquired about “when they would collect their mines,” according to one report.

    That’s almost funnier than these comments

        Nah, they have some great stuff. It’s just way more expensive than the cheap MDF and cardboard garbage that sells by the boatload.
