Poland holds suspect in alleged assassination plot against PM Tusk

Polish police have arrested a man in his 60s, suspected of plotting an attack on Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Defence Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz, according to the interior ministry. Searches are ongoing at the suspect's residence, with more information to be verified by law enforcement. Tusk praised the police for their swift action in apprehending the suspect.

The man was apprehended in Lower Silesia following an internet analysis of his online activity and contacts. The State Protection Service reported receiving alerts about a potential threat against the prime minister and defence minister. The police, along with other security agencies, are treating the matter with utmost seriousness.

Poland has been on high alert due to recent incidents, including several stabbings over the past week, which Tusk denounced as part of a "cult of violence."
