Around a million people gathered on Sunday, October 1, at a rally in Warsaw to protest against Poland’s conservative government two weeks ahead of a key general election. Called by opposition leader and former premier Donald Tusk, the “Million Hearts March” sought to mobilize the electorate ahead of the vote.
“This is absolutely the biggest demonstration in Warsaw’s history,” Warsaw city spokeswoman Monika Beuth told Agence France-Presse (AFP), adding that “around a million” people attended.
