Polish police and security agencies are taking precautionary measures following intelligence indicating a potential attack against the country's prime minister and defense minister, Czech news outlet Seznam Zprávy and The Jerusalem Post reported.

In response to the intelligence, Poland's interior minister and the minister coordinating special services ordered immediate security steps. The threat comes as security forces across the country are already on high alert following a wave of violence in schools that resulted in the death of a school employee earlier in the week. Further details regarding the source of the threat or suspects have not yet been released.
