Camp Jomsborg could host up to 1,200 soldiers, officials said
A Norwegian-led training center for Ukrainian soldiers opened in southeastern Poland on Wednesday.
Camp Jomsborg, constructed by engineers from Norway’s Brigade Nord in the town of Lipa, can host up to 1,200 troops at a time, Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz wrote on X. He added that the base will focus on “developing drone capabilities.”
Kosiniak-Kamysz stressed that NATO would also benefit from Ukrainian combat experience.
“This is not a one-way street. An important element is that we will draw on Ukrainian experience. Right next to us is a drone launch strip,” he said.

Poland has been a key logistical and training hub for Western military aid to Ukraine since the outbreak of open conflict with Russia in 2022.
Also on Wednesday, EU leaders agreed to create a “drone wall” along the bloc’s eastern flank, following Polish claims last month that Russian UAVs had violated its airspace.
Estonia likewise alleged that three Russian fighter jets entered its airspace in September. Moscow dismissed both accusations as baseless and accused the EU of warmongering.
