New Chief of Staff plans military exercise for 20,000 troops in 2024

In the upcoming year, the largest land forces exercise in Europe, Dragon-24, will take place, involving around 20,000 soldiers, including 15,000 from the Polish Armed Forces, as announced by the newly appointed Chief of the General Staff of the Polish Army, Gen. Wiesław Kukuła. He emphasized that Poland is undergoing the largest military transformation in its history, likening it to a triangle where people and structures are at the top, equipment and training systems at the bottom, all connected by organizational culture focused on building capabilities and a culture of winning.

The Dragon-24 exercise will include 15,000 Polish soldiers and 5,000 soldiers from selected NATO countries, notably the United States and the United Kingdom.
