🚑 Grudziadz

Emergency services rescued four children aged between two and eleven from a car crash in Grudziądz overnight. The collision left seven people injured and has led the morning news, alongside more grim developments in the health system: a patient at one emergency room waited 53 hours for treatment, a delay that ended in the amputation of a finger. The government is navigating its own internal friction after the failure of a legislative bill reportedly left the deputy prime minister furious. Meanwhile, investigators are examining an alleged plot to assassinate Donald Tusk; the inquiry is currently focused on the claim that the prime minister was to be targeted with a crossbow. Pollsters have been busy testing the public's appetite for a permanent US military base, which a majority appears to favor. Other surveys have asked Poles to rank the best presidents of the Third Republic, with Tomasz Nawrocki and Aleksander Kwaśniewski producing results that commentators have found unexpectedly varied.
