Poland plans to increase spending on military equipment, but there is a lack of funds for the necessary infrastructure to store it, which raises questions about the effectiveness of the investments and the future of the national defense industry. #PolskaObrona #WydatkiWojskowe #BezpieczeństwoNarodowe (translated)

The author wrote that Minister Sikorski was close to declaring the transfer of all military equipment held by Poland to Ukraine and formally joining the war.

Lemingopedia criticized the Government Security Center for a mistake in sending an alert about an air threat: a message intended for residents of the Lublin Voivodeship was mistakenly received by residents of the Lubusz Voivodeship. It cited a statement from RCB confirming the error and accused employees hired by Marcin Kierwiński of failing to distinguish between the voivodeships. The author pointed out that in the case of an actual threat, residents of Lublin might not receive a warning, while the alert would reach people in Lubusz. She also criticized the preparations regarding equipment financed by SAFE, the delivery of which — in her opinion — could occur only in several years and would be associated with significant debt. She mentioned Sobkowiak-Czarnecka and her previous posing with a weapon. Lemingopedia ironically considered that establishing a Center for Fighting Disinformation could be justified since — as she claimed — the government itself misleads people and the prime minister lies. She also speculated that Kierwiński could become the commissioner for reconstruction in the event of destruction, and the funds related to this would go to people connected with the authorities. At the same time, she admitted that not all actions of the Civic Coalition were considered bad. https://t.co/8NPL5yAO8g #Polska #AlertRCB #KrytykaWładzy (translated)

We will see each other tomorrow - Shmoo turned to Sławek, accusing him of outdated military knowledge and using derogatory terms against him. He listed tasks that — as he wrote — women successfully perform on the modern battlefield: piloting helicopters, operating drones, actions in cyberspace and electronic warfare, sniper work, operating anti-aircraft systems and radars, logistics, field medicine, and OSINT intelligence analysis. The author stated that war does not differ by gender, and women serve with modern equipment, while Sławek from his safe office asks — in his opinion — questions insulting to human intelligence. #wojskowość #kobiety #technologia (translated)

MNFPL reported that Angelina Jolie pointed out the scale of destruction in Gaza, visible on Google Earth. According to the data she cited from a UN satellite analysis, 82% of buildings were damaged, and about two-thirds of them were considered completely destroyed. Jolie also stated that 1.98 million people needed shelter. She emphasized that satellite images do not reflect the living conditions among the ruins and called for providing civilians with shelter before winter and delivering humanitarian aid, medicines, and medical equipment to hospitals. #Gaza #PomocHumanitarna #Zniszczenia (translated)

Karol Michalak wrote that the takeover of power in Wisła Kraków by the fans and their use of equipment was considered an extreme pathology. He stated that if organized crime groups had any influence on Legia Warsaw, and the PZPN, Ekstraklasa, and Canal Plus did not react decisively, it would be a scandal of enormous proportions. He left the readers to assess whether such influence existed. #kibole #WisłaKraków #LegiaWarszawa (translated)

Cezary Tomczyk informed about the new uniform of the Polish Army in RYŚ camouflage, which — as he wrote — was the first such change in 33 years. He emphasized that in the "Szpej" operation, it was assumed that the equipment was to serve the soldier. Tomczyk wrote that in 2023 the warehouses were empty and the frontline units lacked equipment. He accused Antoni Macierewicz of sabotaging the Polish army and reminded that on November 16, 2015, as the head of the Ministry of National Defense, he canceled the purchase of uniforms. According to Tomczyk, they were not purchased in 2016 and 2017 despite the needs. He added that he filed a report on this matter to the prosecutor's office, and the proceedings were ongoing. Presenting data for the years 2023–2026, Tomczyk stated that the state of Grot carbines increased from about 50 to 110 percent of personnel levels, composite helmets from about 40 to 190 percent, and bulletproof vests from about 26 to around 70 percent. He added that the stock of night vision goggles increased by 60 percent, and the number of holographic sights doubled. According to him, the government of Donald Tusk and Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz allocated around 10 billion PLN for individual equipment over three years, which is about 1.5 billion PLN more than in the previous eight years. Tomczyk wrote that the RYŚ camouflage reduced detectability by 30 percent compared to the previously used Panther, and at night it was twice less detectable than the popular Multicam. He stated that the pattern was patented and the Polish Army had exclusivity on it, tested by reconnaissance troops during the day and night, using night vision and from the air. The new fabric was to be seven times more abrasion-resistant, twice as breathable, and have 30 percent greater durability. The uniform was developed by the Special Forces Clothing Design Office, and it was tested by 500 soldiers from over 30 units — Tomczyk reported. He added that thousands of uniforms were to reach the army by the end of the year, and by the end of 2028, every soldier was to receive the new outfit. He also wrote that soldiers should know that the state supports them on the border with Belarus, in the air, and in cyberspace. #WojskoPolskie #nowymundur #armia (translated)

Frag Out! Magazine described the K-03 Rys as a new camouflage pattern that it believed resembled the WS-31 or its variant and fit into the trend of patterns similar to Multicam. It tentatively named it "MultiPlama." It noted five colors with transitions, a large report limiting the repeatability of the pattern, and a selection of colors from the palette most commonly found in Poland. It compared the color scheme to the green version of ATACS, Endor Commando, which it evaluated as performing well in Poland. According to assurances cited by the magazine, the camouflage was supposed to conceal 30% more effectively than the wz.93, and it was also supposed to have a similar advantage over Multicam. Frag Out! disagreed with Jarosław Wolski, who had written that the pattern would distinguish soldiers on the battlefield and facilitate their identification. It argued that the K-03 Rys referenced the currently popular Multicam. The magazine emphasized that it assessed the uniform based on photos and recordings, so it wanted to see it in the field and test it. It noted the new cut, the men's and women's versions, and solutions that had been proposed 17 years earlier. According to the provided assurances, the fabric was to be 30% more durable, twice as breathable, and seven times more abrasion-resistant, as well as better at holding its color. It was supposed to consist of four components rather than, as is most common, two. Tops and trousers were to be selected separately, instead of creating a set. Frag Out! believed that it was still too early to form an opinion about the uniform, but it admitted that it looked at it with cautious optimism. It estimated that the exchange of uniforms and equipment would take 5-10 years. It also asked how companies would be able to sew equipment for the Green List if the pattern were to be patented, about which, as it wrote, Naval was being informed. In the end, it expressed hope that green bands would ultimately be found in the camouflage. #kamuflaż #mundur #armia (translated)

Chrzanik wrote that Karol Nawrocki directly addressed Donald Tusk, asking him to leave Polish women and men, patients, and drivers alone, and instead to focus his attack on him, using a baseball bat, which — as Nawrocki said — he himself did not need. Chrzanik added that Tusk, unlike Nawrocki, flew with equipment related to Lechia Gdańsk. https://t.co/Hx60Luntxx #Polska #DonaldTusk #KarolNawrocki (translated)
