Poland has deployed over 20,000 police officers to schools following three recent stabbing attacks that injured multiple individuals. Prime Minister Donald Tusk cited growing youth violence and harmful online content as contributing factors, while Interior Minister Marcin Kierwinski emphasized the need for strict enforcement against such attacks. Police inspections of around 80,000 educational institutions led to the detention of 135 people since Friday, including a case where a boy was found with weapons after creating a violent simulation in a video game.

Story summary
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated that recent stabbing attacks at schools across Poland, including one fatal incident in Warsaw, were driven by the glorification of violence online. Three violent incidents occurred this week, resulting in injuries to students and staff members. Police arrested 117 individuals for weapons possession or threats related to school attacks after searching thousands of educational institutions. Authorities dismissed rumors linking the attacks to an organized group or challenge, instead attributing them to extreme right-wing influences and a rise in internet searches involving Nazi content and violent mass killers idolized online. In response, over 20,000 police officers were deployed nationwide on Monday to secure schools amid concerns about youth violence trends.
