Polish airports Rzeszów and Lublin closed Feb. 7, 2026, due to NATO military activity amid Russian strikes on Ukraine.

Two southeastern Polish airports, Rzeszów and Lublin, temporarily closed on February 7, 2026, due to unplanned military activity involving NATO aircraft amid Russian strikes on Ukraine. Polish authorities cited the need to secure airspace near the Ukrainian border and ensure uninterrupted military operations, with Rzeszów serving as a key NATO logistics hub. The U.S. FAA confirmed both airports were inaccessible due to national security-related military activity. This follows a similar closure last month during routine exercises. No threats to civilian airspace were reported, and the duration of the closure remains unclear.
