Unplanned Military Activity Shuts Down Polish Airspace

Airspace over Lublin and Rzeszow airports in Poland has been closed due to unplanned military activity, according to a notice from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration. The closure involves NATO aircraft and aims to ensure state security. This follows a similar suspension of operations last month.

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration announced that airspace over Southeastern Poland's Lublin and Rzeszow airports has been closed due to unplanned military activity.

This was revealed on Saturday through an FAA notice that cited military activity related to ensuring state security.

According to FlightRadar24, NATO aircraft were operating in the area, causing the closure. Last month these airports also suspended operations, but no threat to Polish airspace was cited at the time.
