Story summary

On November 7, 2026, a 24-year-old gunman with far-right views killed six people and wounded at least fifteen others in the historic center of Kraków, Poland's second-largest city. The attacker drove his car into the Main Market Square just before 3 PM local time and began firing randomly at pedestrians. Among the victims was a British national; the other five were identified as Polish citizens. After fleeing, police found two women and a man dead in the gunman’s home in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, about 93 miles northeast of Kraków—likely family members. The shooter died from his injuries on November 9 at the hospital where he was being treated.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
