Poland’s fire service reported over 1,900 interventions following the passage of a severe storm front. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defence, Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, has announced an increased state of readiness for the Territorial Defence Force (WOT). This decision aims to bolster support for emergency services across the country dealing with storm-related incidents. The WOT will be deployed to assist in response and recovery efforts as needed. The extent of the damage is still being assessed, but the storms caused widespread disruption. Authorities are prioritizing public safety and working to restore essential services impacted by the weather event. This preventative measure ensures additional resources are available to manage the aftermath of the storms.
