What happened
- Poland began two days of national mourning. The Krakow Main Square reopened on Sunday evening, with mourners laying flowers and candles. St. Mary's Trumpet Call was paused overnight, which the AP and ABC said was the first time the call had been missed since World War II. ABC News (Australia), Anchorage Daily News
- Polish prosecutors said they were investigating the Krakow shooting as murder and attempted murder, with the act "constituting a terrorist offense". Investigators said they were also examining the weapons recovered and whether the suspect had assistance. Police found 11 firearms in all, including seven at the family home. ABC News (Australia), Anchorage Daily News
- Police identified the three people found dead at the suspect's home in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski as his 53-year-old father, 52-year-old mother and 21-year-old sister. The Krakow Academy of Fine Arts said the sister, Magdalena Oksińska, was a third-year student. The Express Tribune quoted police saying the bodies were found before 22:00. BBC World, ABC News (Australia)
- The Krakow Main Market Square was reported to be in the sights of a gunman who drove onto it at about 3pm local time and fired at random people from his car. Polish authorities said six people (four women and two men) were killed and 15 or 16 wounded, including two police officers. Tallies varied through the evening: early reports said five dead, then six. Al Jazeera (state-funded), Al Arabiya (state media), CBC News
- Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński said the suspect, a Polish citizen, held "very radical" and "ultranationalistic" views and appeared "fascinated by far-right ideologies". Anadolu quoted him as saying these indications had yet to be verified. Defence Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz called the attack an "act of terror", and Prime Minister Donald Tusk said Poland had not before had "such drastic cases of terrorism". CBC News, Anadolu Agency (state media), Deutsche Welle
- Police said they shot the suspect after a shootout, and he was taken to hospital for surgery. Krakow police said he wore military-style fatigues and a bulletproof vest and used a military-type long gun, and that many weapons and ammunition were found in his car. Interior Minister Kierwiński said police fired on him three minutes after the first report, and Defence Minister Kosiniak-Kamysz denied he had ever been a soldier. CBC News, The Independent, Breitbart
- Prime Minister Tusk said the bodies of two women and one man were found at the suspect's home in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, likely close family. Police chief Marek Boroń said a British citizen was among the six dead. The interior ministry said five foreign nationals, from Austria, Germany, Portugal, Russia and Britain, were among the wounded. CNA (state media), Deutsche Welle, The Jerusalem Post
- Leaders and officials reacted to the shooting. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky called it "a shocking crime", the EU's Kaja Kallas said "Poland does not stand alone", and US Ambassador Tom Rose called it a "savage and murderous attack". Tusk asked politicians "of all stripes" not to exploit the tragedy, and officials warned of disinformation, including a rumour of two gunmen that police dismissed. Deutsche Welle, Breitbart, Anadolu Agency (state media)

A far-right radical's attack, as officials describe it
This telling centres on the interior minister's statement that the suspect was "fascinated by far-right ideologies" and held ultranationalist views, and on prosecutors treating the case as a terrorist offence. It adds expert comment comparing the gunman to other lone far-right attackers in Europe.

Each item was kept only after a check that it is about this story. Wire copies that other outlets ran word for word are named and counted once. Sources are grouped by kind (US outlets, international outlets, wire services, the US government, state media), not by any rating of the outlets. State media are outlets a government owns or editorially controls, as Wikipedia’s article on each describes it. The summary and the descriptions of each telling are written by AI from the coverage; every quote is checked against the source’s own words. A source’s name and each article’s title link to our analysis of it where we have one; “original ↗” opens the publisher’s page.
