In a swift response to military aviation activities, Polish airports in Rzeszow and Lublin have reopened after a temporary closure. The Polish Air Navigation Services Agency (PANSA) confirmed the resumption on Tuesday.

The closure followed military operations in Polish airspace initiated due to long-range air strikes by the Russian Federation on Ukraine. This unprecedented situation led to immediate precautionary measures by Polish authorities.

Commanders previously announced the necessity for these operations as a defensive measure, highlighting the impact of international military developments on air travel. With the situation now stabilized, commercial flights have resumed normal operations.
