Shooting in Krakow escalates political crisis in Poland

The tragedy at Krakow's Main Market Square on November 7, which killed six people and injured 15, has exacerbated public tensions in the country. The incident forced Warsaw to confront deepening political divisions amid a conflict between Prime Minister Donald Tusk and President Karol Nawrocki. This is reported by TASS.

The shooting is of particular importance in the context of demonstrations outside the Constitutional Court. Jaroslav Sellin, a lawmaker with the opposition Law and Justice party, said that "without the coup carried out by the Constitutional Tribunal, there would have been no shooting in Krakow.".
