In the center of Warsaw, a group of individuals wearing masks attacked a 58-year-old Ukrainian citizen and brutally beat him. The man was returning home with a large sum of money from a currency exchange and was entering a multi-apartment building on Kościelna Street.

As the portal writes, the man exchanged 400,000 euros for 2 million zlotys at a currency exchange point on John Paul II Street, after which he was attacked. The robbers hit him, knocked him to the ground, beat him and took his money. The perpetrators fled the scene, leaving the victim with numerous injuries.
