Two airports in Poland — in Lublin and Rzeszow — suspended operations amid military aviation activity, Poland's Air Navigation Services Agency (PANSA) reported.
According to the agency, Poland scrambled fighter jets in response to Russian military aviation activity over Ukrainian territory. The decision to suspend airport operations was made on airspace safety grounds.
A Routine Precaution
Similar measures have repeatedly been taken by Poland and other NATO countries bordering Ukraine during periods of heightened Russian aviation activity near the Ukrainian border. The temporary closure of airspace or individual airports in such cases is used to minimize risks to civil aviation.
PANSA did not specify exactly when normal operations resumed at the Lublin and Rzeszow airports, nor did it provide further details about the nature of the military activity recorded.
Polish authorities regularly monitor the air situation near the border with Ukraine and Belarus amid the ongoing conflict.
