Cassiopeia criticized the researcher from the Polish Academy of Sciences, Elżbieta Janicka, for her statement about the widespread involvement of Poles in identifying and handing over Jews hiding during the occupation. Janicka allegedly claimed that if most Poles were indifferent and passive, more Jews seeking refuge on the "Aryan side" would have survived. In response, Cassiopeia described the liquidation of the ghetto in Częstochowa. According to her post, on October 8, 1942, the Germans, supported by Ukrainian and Latvian collaborators, completed its liquidation. The last transport left for Treblinka, where around 40,000 people were taken. Cassiopeia stated that at least about 2,000 people were shot on the spot, mainly on Kawia Street. She added that Germans, SS-Wachmannschaften units mainly composed of Ukrainians and Latvians, and the Jewish Order Service participated in the deportations. She also recalled the description of searching for people hiding in bunkers, attics, and basements. According to the account she provided, Jewish policemen collaborated with gendarmes and Ukrainians, urging those in hiding to come out, and after confiscating their belongings, the Germans executed them on the spot. Cassiopeia also pointed out that on October 8, bread was distributed to encourage those in hiding to reveal themselves. The post also described the assistance provided to Jews by priest Bolesław Wróblewski. Cassiopeia wrote that the clergyman helped to lead children out of the ghetto, who then ended up in orphanages in Częstochowa and Polish families, and issued rescued children Catholic baptism certificates. She estimated the number of rescued children to be at least several dozen. As a source, she cited the book by Shlomo Wagi, "The Destruction of Czenstokov." Finally, she accused Janicka of defending Poles and wrote that she herself felt obligated to defend them. https://t.co/uYX0ELCMFj #Polska #Historia #Holokaust (translated)

Łukasz Warzecha wrote that the situation regarding the arrest of Piotr looked worse for the police. He claimed that the officers did not provide a reason for taking action, although they were obliged to, and the recording from the body camera, which was supposed to confirm their reasoning, in his opinion, indicated incompetence. The statement from the Capital Police Headquarters, according to which the officers were prompted to attempt to identify the man due to his unusual behavior and nervousness, Warzecha deemed absurd. He asked whether it would mean that the police could identify any person deemed nervous by an officer. https://t.co/HD8OAQmWkx #Polska #Policja #Bezpieczeństwo (translated)
