Six people die and about fifteen are wounded after a 25‑year‑old Polish gunman drove into Kraków’s Main Market Square and opened fire, police say. The attacker, wearing a bullet‑proof vest, was shot, wounded and taken to hospital for surgery. Two police officers were among the injured, one critically. Authorities have identified the shooter as acting alone, with ultranationalist motives, and have begun a terrorism investigation. Prime Minister Donald Tusk praised the police response and announced two days of national mourning.

False bomb threats against European flights and media outlets led to diversions, evacuations and fighter escorts on 5 and 6 Nov, but no explosives were found and all aircraft landed safely. Eurocontrol counted threats against 14 flights on 5 and 6 Nov and against 7 flights on 3 Nov. Broadcasters RTE in Ireland, Sky and Nova TV in Croatia received threat emails from a sender calling himself Mikhail Andropov. Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares called the campaign a hybrid attack on Europe's democracy, and investigations are under way in several countries.

The death toll from a Russian strike on an aid site in Komyshuvakha, a village southeast of Zaporizhzhia in southeastern Ukraine, has risen to 33, according to reports from 4 Nov. More than 50 people are missing. Regional officials say nine FAB-3000 bombs, each about three tonnes, struck a former school used for aid distribution and as a shelter. Four police officers and two rescue workers were among those killed. Three days of mourning have been declared in the Zaporizhzhia region. Russia's Defence Ministry says the strike targeted Ukrainian military units and reports up to 25 servicemen killed, a claim that differs from Ukrainian accounts.
