Government extends BRAVO and BRAVO-CRP alert levels through 30 November
Published · Updated
What happened
The government confirmed on 29 October that BRAVO and BRAVO-CRP alert levels will continue nationwide until 30 November 2026, while CHARLIE remains in force on selected rail infrastructure and BRAVO applies to Polish energy infrastructure abroad.
Why it matters
The extension preserves a higher operating posture for security services, infrastructure operators, rail operators, and public institutions for another month. It keeps in place legal and procedural grounds for tighter protection, access controls, checks, and cyber-vigilance tied to sabotage and hybrid-action contingencies.
A government notice available on 29 October confirmed that Poland's BRAVO and BRAVO-CRP alert levels remain in force nationwide through 30 November 2026. The notice also maintains CHARLIE on selected rail lines and extends BRAVO protection measures to Polish energy infrastructure located abroad. The move keeps elevated counter-sabotage, transport-security, and cyber-readiness procedures active during the continuing war environment around Ukraine.
