>After Russia’s armed attack on Ukraine, Zambian students had to be evacuated from Ukraine. The task has been carried out since yesterday (27 February this year) by soldiers of the 6th Mazowiecka Brigade OT. The task is to pick up Zambian citizens from the Hrebenne border crossing and arrange transport to Warsaw, where Zambian students are waiting for further measures. The group of soldiers performing this task consists of paramedics, drivers and security personnel. About 150 Zambian students were evacuated. The WOT soldiers of Mazowiec will be involved in the relief effort until all citizens of Zambia are on the Polish side and safely reach Warsaw International Airport.

>The Territorial Defense Army has been operating for three days under a new, elevated regime. WOT soldiers from Podlachia, Lublin and the Carpathian foothills were called to the barracks. Soldiers from all 12 other OT brigades from all over Poland are on standby for 12 hours. The main tasks of the WOT include supporting the border guards in protecting the state border and supporting the state and local authorities in organising and operating the reception points for refugees (WOT forms support groups for the resettlement of refugees, the highest in the history of the WOT, WOT: Change of Status for Immediate Arrival of Soldiers).
