Members of the Polish armed forces unload and startup their Leopard tanks in Warsaw, Poland, on August 8, 2026, ahead of rehearsals for the Armed Forces Day military parade scheduled for August 15. The parade will showcase Poland's rapidly expanding armed forces as the country pursues one of the largest military buildups in Europe, driven by concerns over Russian aggression following Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Poland has significantly increased defense spending in recent years, allocating one of the highest shares of GDP to military expenditure among NATO members, with a stated goal of building one of the largest armies in Europe.
