- In Warsaw, an unknown man attacked a woman on the street: "go back to your Ukraine"

The incident occurred on the evening of 25 July, reports Nashaniva.
40-year-old Belarusian Volga, living in Poland since 2021, met with an acquaintance that evening.
The man was following me and was talking loudly on the phone, shouting at someone. I looked round and he noticed. He didn't like it. He started shouting at me not to turn round. Soon I felt him spit in my back," the woman said.
Volga asked the man in Polish what he was doing, after which he spat in her face and started shouting: "Why are you here? Go to your Ukraine!"
As a result, the woman was hit in the temple with a fist. According to her, there were many people around, but no one intervened in the situation.
The police advised Volga to file a civil suit privately, as she allegedly suffered minor injuries.
Belaruska plans to apply to an anti-xenophobia organisation.
