Poland’s police warn of a possible plot to attack Prime Minister Donald Tusk

WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Poland's police have warned of a potential threat targeting Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz. On Sunday, authorities received intelligence regarding a possible plot against the two prominent government figures. Poland's Interior Ministry spokesperson, Karolina Galecka, announced that security services, police, and Interior Ministry representatives were set to convene an emergency meeting at 11 a.m. (0900 GMT) that day to assess the situation.

In September, Prime Minister Tusk had cautioned about the possibility of intensified hybrid attacks by Russia on NATO's eastern border. Following three school assaults in Mazovia province within a four-day span, Polish authorities have been on heightened alert this week.
