Poland's Army says it conducts preventive air operations related to Russian strikes on Ukraine

Scrambles of this kind are the standing procedure NATO's eastern-flank members run when Russian strike packages approach the alliance's borders, and they have recurred through the conflict without on their own marking an escalation.

Context

The distinction that matters is between preventive air policing, which is defensive and routine, and an actual interception or engagement over allied airspace, which would be the step-change. Transmission to markets in past episodes of this kind has run through European risk premia rather than any single asset: gas and power, central-European FX and equity, and at times the front of core curves on a safety bid, with the move fading once the alert stood down. Poland's form here is to publicise the scramble and then de-escalate in follow-up statements; confirmation that operations are preventive is the base case, not the signal. What is worth watching is any subsequent wording on violations of Polish airspace, wreckage on Polish soil, or an Article 4-style consultation, since those are the points where prior episodes have repriced durably rather than intraday.
