According to the source, at least 10 military aircraft landed at the base in the last 72 hours, including cargo planes from Belgium, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, and Poland, as well as two refueling tankers.

The Rzeszów base has served as NATO’s main center for transporting military equipment to Ukraine, and a similar facility is planned for Romania to decentralize and secure the flow of supplies.

Local military analysts believe the movement could indicate accelerated logistical preparations or the start of a new phase of supplies, amid growing pressure on Ukrainian communication lines following recent Russian attacks on infrastructure in the Odesa region.

The air mobilization in Rzeszow suggests the alliance is seeking to maintain a constant flow of supplies by air given the vulnerability of land routes, although this option is more expensive and has a lower volumetric capacity.
