A transshipment base for the American military has appeared in Poland.

A new transshipment base for the US military has been put into operation in Poland.

The transshipment base, which was created in the Trzebienka area, is one of three bases being built in the area of ​​​​the city of Świętoszów, where the landfills are located. In total, the base will be able to accommodate 3.6 thousand soldiers. They will be used on a rotational basis for the reception, stay and further movement of ground forces.

As explained in the Polish army, this base represents the implementation of agreements signed between Poland and the United States in 2022 on expanding cooperation and is part of a larger project.

“It must create conditions for the permanent deployment of a tank brigade. These investments will be implemented in the coming years and will be a priority. This will be a camp based on permanent infrastructure for 4.8 thousand soldiers,” Polish Defense Ministry spokesman Dariusz Mendrala said.

He added that the transshipment bases are designed to quickly receive “reinforcement forces, manning them, equipping them and directing them for defensive actions.”


The construction of the bases is financed from the budget of the Polish Ministry of Defense.
