Woman injures three people in third Poland school knife attack in a week

A 21-year-old woman has been arrested following a third knife attack at a Polish school within a week. The incident took place at an educational facility in Warsaw, where she inflicted injuries on three individuals. The victim, a 17-year-old girl, was attacked with a dangerous object, and although her condition was not life-threatening, she was taken to the hospital.

This follows two previous knife attacks this week, one of which resulted in the death of a 37-year-old female caretaker at a primary school in Leszczydół-Nowiny. Authorities have not yet confirmed if the latest attack is connected to the earlier incidents. Polish police had previously deployed to schools nationwide, resulting in the detention of 76 people.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk emphasized that child safety and school security cannot be compromised. Initial investigations suggest the suspect, a student, was unaware of her three victims, who were aged 17, 24, and a caretaker.
