During the 1939 Nazi invasion, Poland evacuated 75–80 tonnes of gold—largely via city buses to Romania and then by allied ships to the West. This bullion was stored in London, New York, and Ottawa for the duration of the war. The vast majority, including 100 tonnes, was finally repatriated to Poland in a top-secret 2019 operation. YouTube +5 Key Aspects of the Polish Gold Journey: The Escape (1939): Under intense pressure, Bank of Poland officials, aided by civilians and military, moved the reserves out of Warsaw just before its fall. The journey involved navigating through Romania, Turkey, and Beirut. Storage Locations: While much was taken to the Bank of England in London, some was also sent to Canada and the USA to ensure its safety from German seizure. 2019 Repatriation: In a secret operation involving G4S Cash Solutions, approx. 8,000 bars were flown back from London to Poland. Kinda funny how difficult it is to find credible information about this in english, and how the official narration was "blue-penciled". I read some parts od dissertation from my friend who's Phd in history/economy and who took part in auditing this case since 2013. Pretty odd how plenty of tonnes just gone with a wind "somewhere". The numbers doesn't match.
