Poland to evacuate its citizens from Israel

Poland will send military planes to evacuate its citizens from Israel, Polish President Andrzej Duda said on Sunday, a day after Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel.

“We are sending air force transport planes to carry out the evacuation of Poles currently staying in Israel. Soldiers from our special forces will ensure loading protection and safety on board,” Duda wrote on X social media platform.

Defence Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said Poland was sending two C-130 Hercules planes to evacuate some 200 Poles from Ben Gurion Airport.

It would add more planes if necessary or liaise with Greece to ferry Polish citizens to the Mediterranean country before bringing them home on Casa transport planes.

Move for election. Why not just send a charter?

I mean, the C-130 is designed to operate in combat zones, and from short/improvised airstrips, and more easily facilitates the movement of soldiers. Those could be features the polish government thinks are advisable in the current situation. Plus, it could just be a speed thing. It’s a lot easier to get a military aircraft dispatched on extremely short notice than it is to charter plane(s).

No, this is pretty standard for how civilians are evacuated from combat zones
