President Karol Nawrocki has signed a classified order consenting to the presence of NATO forces on Polish soil as part of Operation “Eastern Sentry,” a move that underscores Poland’s heightened role in the alliance’s eastern defense posture.

The decision was announced Sunday by Poland’s National Security Bureau, emphasizing the nation’s commitment to strengthening regional security amid ongoing concerns over potential threats faced by NATO’s eastern flank.

Major Security Operation Initiated

Operation “Eastern Sentry” — known in Polish as “Wschodnia Straż” — is designed to bolster NATO’s collective security in response to evolving pressures on the alliance’s borders. The initiative aims to enhance the defense capabilities of not just Poland, but the broader eastern region of NATO member states.

According to Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, who spoke on Saturday, the operation represents “one of the most significant” undertakings in NATO history. He stated, “NATO is providing a firm and clear response. ‘Eastern Sentry’ is decisive. It’s a serious, major operation, perhaps one of the largest in NATO’s history.”

Currently, eight countries have expressed an intention to participate, with additional allies preparing to follow suit. Details of the deployment, including troop numbers and exact composition, remain undisclosed due to the classified nature of the presidential order.

Multi-Layered Air Defense and Command Structure

Minister Kosiniak-Kamysz outlined that the operation will involve multiple types of equipment, aiming to construct a “multi-layered air defense system.” This will encompass not only anti-drone technology, but also countermeasures addressing missiles, aircraft, and a range of other potential aerial threats.

The defense measures are expected to include aircraft, helicopters, ground support vehicles, air defense batteries, missile defense systems, and advanced anti-drone configurations.

Operational command for “Eastern Sentry” in Poland will be led by the country’s Operational Command of Armed Forces in coordination with NATO’s Allied Joint Force Command in Brunssum, Netherlands. This approach allows both political and military alignment among NATO members, ensuring cohesive defense mechanisms and strategic decision-making.

Article 4 Activation and Polish Preparedness

The launch of “Eastern Sentry” comes in the wake of Poland activating Article 4 of the North Atlantic Treaty, which allows member states to consult when they feel their territorial integrity or security is threatened.

“Poland is ready to accept all the measures and forces that NATO assigns,” Kosiniak-Kamysz affirmed on Saturday, reinforcing the nation’s willingness to serve as a central defense hub for the alliance.

The timing and scope of the deployment indicate a new chapter for NATO’s strategic engagement in Eastern Europe, demonstrating both deterrence and solidarity amid the latest security challenges.

As NATO mobilizes in Poland, political and military leaders stress that such steps are essential to ensure the stability, sovereignty, and safety of member countries bordering potential crisis zones. The coming weeks are expected to clarify further details regarding the structure, mandate, and duration of this critical defense mission.
