Three injured in third school attack in Poland in less than a week

Three people were injured in a stabbing at a further education college in Warsaw, marking the third school attack in Poland within a week. A 21-year-old woman attacked a 17-year-old with a dangerous object, also injuring two other bystanders. One victim was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, while the other two did not require hospitalization. The attacker, who reportedly studied at the institution, did not know the victims. This incident follows police detaining 76 people across Poland and checking nearly 50,000 schools nationwide in response to previous attacks, amid concerns of copycat violence.

A 21-year-old woman was arrested in Warsaw, Poland, after injuring three people with a "dangerous object" at an educational institution on Saturday. The victims included a 17-year-old student and two other women submitting enrollment documents; their injuries are not life-threatening. This incident marks the third school knife attack in Poland this week, following two earlier attacks on October 7th and 8th, one of which resulted in a fatality. Thousands of police had been deployed to schools nationwide in response to the previous incidents. Authorities stated they could not confirm if the latest attack was connected to the earlier ones, and initial findings suggest the suspect, a student at the school, did not know the victims.
