Polish police have received information regarding a possible plot to attack Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Defence Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz. An Interior Ministry spokesperson confirmed the reports on Sunday, prompting an investigation and a response from the country’s security services.
Security officials held an emergency meeting after receiving the information. A special services spokesperson described the threat as deadly serious and exceptionally concerning. It remains unclear what specific information was received or what form the potential attack may have taken.
The warnings come while Poland is on high alert following a series of school stabbings and a wave of violence this week. Additionally, there are fears of a possible Russian hybrid attack intended to weaken western support for Ukraine in its war against Moscow’s invasion.
