The morning began with revelations about the Kazakhstan plane crash, as Azerbaijan, Israel, and Kazakhstan suspended flights to Russia following evidence of Moscow's involvement in the incident. NATO responded to Baltic Sea cable damage, signaling increased maritime presence.
By midday, attention shifted to the controversial police raid on a Dominican monastery in Lublin, where prosecutors claimed to be searching for Romanowski. The monastery's prior and church officials disputed the necessity and legality of the operation, comparing it to pre-1863 uprising tactics.
President Duda signed the Christmas Eve Work Bill while simultaneously referring it to the Constitutional Tribunal, continuing the pattern of partial executive approvals. Evening coverage focused on Ziobro's public support for Romanowski's Hungarian asylum, while polls showed widespread public disapproval of the asylum situation.
