A Polish fundraiser for two officers wounded during the Krakow mass shooting raised over €1.13 million, as urgent blood donations continue for a critically injured policeman.

Polish citizens have shown widespread solidarity following the 7 November mass shooting in Krakow's main square, which left six dead and 15 wounded. A fundraising campaign for two police officers injured while apprehending the gunman raised over €1.13 million within 17 hours. Urges for blood donations continue across Poland for Officer Jakub Kulik, a former paratrooper who remains in critical condition.

Authorities stated that police responded within 23 seconds of receiving the emergency call to neutralize the 24-year-old suspect. The wounded officers received immediate medical attention from two prominent surgeons dining nearby. While all 15 injured bystanders are currently in stable condition, investigators are working to determine the shooter's motive after discovering three of his relatives dead at his residence.
