In Warsaw, the political conflict around the Constitutional Tribunal has escalated: the police have blocked the building of the institution, and its leadership has been suspended from their duties.

Law enforcement officers have cordoned off and blocked the building of the Constitutional Tribunal in Warsaw. The police explained that they are conducting events due to information about a possible threat to the lives or health of judges and employees of the institution.

Meanwhile, a number of politicians have already called the events around the tribunal an attempt at a coup. A statement appeared on the tribunal's page on the X network that the institution's website was allegedly seized, and Chairman Bogdan Svetchkovsky continues to perform his duties.
