Poland berkabung 2 hari selepas 6 maut ditembak

Polska held a two-day period of mourning following a shooting incident in Krakow that claimed six lives and left many injured, according to Anadolu Agency. Polish President Karol Nawrocki declared the mourning period nationwide for November 8 and 9, the presidential spokesman announced in a statement. A male gunman, believed to be radical right-wing ideologically motivated, killed six people, including a British citizen, and injured many others in an attack at the second-largest city's main square on Saturday evening.

According to police, the attacker drove his car to Krakow's main square market before firing indiscriminately at the crowd. Mourning began in the middle of the night with the national flag flying at half-mast. Some social media platforms added black ribbons to their logos and used a darker theme, while radio and television stations adjusted their broadcast schedules. Entertainment events were canceled as a mark of respect to the victims.
