Poland has been rocked by a cyber attack according to the country's Prime Minister Donald Tusk who appears to have blamed Russia. Mr Tusk appeared to suggest that his party's IT system had come under attack, as it gears up for the country's presidential elections held on May 18 and June 1.

Writing on X, the 67-year-old former President of the European Counci said: "Cyberattack on Platform's IT system. Foreign interference in elections begins. Services point to eastern trace." Civic Platform, the centre-right party led by Mr Tusk, has shared his message on social media.
