US deploys Patriot missile systems just 50 miles from Ukraine border
MARCH 15, 2022 RYAN MORGAN
A pair of U.S. Patriot missile defense systems arrived in Poland on Tuesday and were installed at an airport located just 50 miles from its border with Ukraine, where Russian military forces are invading.
The Daily Mail reported the missile defense systems were installed at the Rzeszow-Jasionka International Airport in Rzeszów, Poland. The city is located 50 miles from Poland’s southeast border and about 100 miles from the southwest Ukrainian city of Lviv.
The Patriot systems arrived at the Polish airport about a week after the U.S. European Command (EUCOM) announced the U.S. would send two of the missile defense systems to the eastern North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) ally.
