Poland has overtaken other EU member states as the top exporter to Ukraine, with its positive trade balance reaching a record €9.7 billion in May 2026.

Poland searches for unknown object near Lublin after suspected airspace violation
Poland's Armed Forces Operational Command said an unknown object may have violated Polish airspace overnight into Sunday, October 18, prompting a search operation south of Lublin. No violation has been confirmed, and authorities have not ruled out a meteorological cause for the recorded radar signal. The episode coincided with a brief Government Centre for Security alert to Lublin-region residents about a Russian attack on Ukraine — later cancelled — and with air-raid alerts in Lithuania and Latvia that triggered NATO jet scrambles and the temporary closure of Kaunas airport.

Poland offers to host Patriot missile production for Ukraine, citing safety of its own territory
Poland has offered to host on its territory the production of interceptor missiles for U.S. Patriot air-defense systems intended for Ukraine, if Washington grants Kyiv the relevant license. The proposal was made by Polish Deputy Minister of National Defense Magdalena Sobków-Czarniecka in a TVN24 interview, and was framed as a response to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's 25 September claim that U.S. President Donald Trump has made a "final decision" to license Ukrainian Patriot production. Poland simultaneously confirmed it is negotiating with the U.S. on a permanent American military base, expected to accommodate around 5,000 troops and their families.

Russian drones strike Kyiv-Warsaw train and infrastructure near Polish border, prompting Polish emergency meeting
On the morning of September 13, 2026, Russian drones struck infrastructure near the Yahodyn-Dorohusk international border crossing on the Ukraine-Poland border in Volyn Oblast, damaging a gas station, hitting a truck on the Polish side, and striking the locomotive of a Kyiv-Warsaw passenger train about two kilometers from the Polish border. Poland scrambled fighter jets, issued air alerts in Lublin and Podkarpackie voivodeships, and Prime Minister Donald Tusk convened an emergency meeting at the Government Centre for Security, warning that Russian escalation could reach Polish territory in the coming weeks. No passengers or railway workers were injured in the locomotive strike after a Ukrzaliznytsia monitoring group warned the crew in advance and gave an evacuation signal roughly 15 minutes before impact.
