Referendum in Częstochowa. Residents decided the fate of the president and the city council
A historic referendum in Częstochowa resulted in the removal of Mayor Krzysztof Matyjaszczyk and the city council, with voter turnout exceeding the required threshold. The decision reflects ongoing political turmoil, as Matyjaszczyk faced corruption allegations and had been unable to fulfill his duties for eight months. The city will now be governed by a commissioner appointed by the prime minister until new elections are held.
