Polish analysts named the cities with the highest threat of an attack from the Russian Federation: ranking.

According to ТСН: A ranking of cities has been published in Poland, analyzing the likelihood of military threats and the ability to quickly recover from crisis situations.

This ranking was compiled by analysts from the National Bank of Economy (BGK).

Threat Analysis

Experts studied various threats, including military and hybrid actions, cyberattacks, misinformation, natural disasters (floods, heatwaves, droughts), health threats, and humanitarian risks such as uncontrolled migration flows.

Analysts note that not all cities face the same risks, so it is important to consider local features, infrastructure, and the preparedness of government authorities.

Cities with the Highest Risk

According to BGK, the highest risk of a military attack concerns Warsaw, as well as cities with important infrastructure located closer to the border with Russia. These include:

• Gdańsk

• Elbląg

• Gdynia

• Białystok

• Płock

• Wrocław

• Kraków

Estimates indicate that Warsaw has the highest level of preparedness for crisis situations due to its developed infrastructure and response plans. The lowest risk of attack is recorded for Wałbrzych in southwestern Poland.

Experts Conclusions

In general, most cities in Poland are well prepared for potential threats, although the level of resilience varies significantly depending on location and the importance of infrastructure. Experts emphasize the importance of systematic planning and enhancing the readiness of local authorities to protect the population in the context of armed conflict.

It is worth noting that Poland has started investigating the death of 7-year-old Amelia, who died as a result of an attack by the Russian Federation on Ternopil on November 19.

To assist in the case, the district prosecutor's office in Poznań has requested assistance from the Ukrainian embassy.

The ranking of cities compiled by the National Bank of Economy shows the importance of preparing for possible threats. In this challenging time, when security is a priority for many countries, Poland is actively assessing its ability to cope with various challenges. This may serve as the basis for further reforms in national security and infrastructure development.
