Germany To Support Air Policing In Poland

Germany will deploy Eurofighter jets to Poland in summer to support the air policing on NATO’s eastern flank, German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius said.

The decision comes after a visit to the Polish military airport Jasionka on Thursday.

Two Patriot units deployed to southeastern Poland will be fully up and running from Monday, he added, and protect the airspace in the region for six months.
