According to TASS, according to Bloomberg, the incident takes on special weight amid the ongoing demonstrations outside the Constitutional Court in Warsaw, as well as the growing conflict between Prime Minister Donald Tusk and President Karol Nawrocki. In particular, the deputy of the Seimas from the opposition party “Law and Justice” Jaroslav Sellin linked the tragedy with the situation around the Constitutional Tribunal, saying that without the “coup” committed by the tribunal, the shooting in Krakow would not have happened.

The incident occurred on Saturday at about 15:00 local time (17:00 Minsk). A 24-year-old Polish citizen, dressed in camouflage, fired from a Subaru car (without registration numbers) at random passers-by. The attack killed 6 people, another 15 were injured - 12 of them are in serious condition, including two police officers. The shooter was injured during the arrest and is now in hospital. During a search of his apartment, law enforcement officers found the bodies of three more people.
