US President Joe Biden and leaders from the G7 and NATO are holding a previously unscheduled meeting in Bali to discuss the explosion in Poland that killed two people, APA reports citing Reuters.

Poland said a "Russian-made missile" fell on a village near the Ukrainian border on Tuesday.

The meeting attendees include Biden, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, French President Emmanuel Macron, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Fumio, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Council President Charles Michel.

When the group was briefly captured on camera Wednesday morning local time, Biden was asked whether he could tell reporters more about what he knows about the explosion in Poland.

"No," Biden replied before cameras were escorted out of the room.

Biden spoke earlier with Polish President Andrzej Duda and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

Biden and other world leaders are gathered on the Indonesian island of Bali for the G20 summit.
