Anti‑immigration protests have taken place in dozens of towns and cities across Poland.

Most demonstrations attracted several hundred people or fewer on Saturday - but police estimated that about 3,000 took part in the largest rally in the southern city of Katowice.

The protests were organised by far-right political group Konfederacja, and another nationalist organisation.

Politicians from Konfederacja and the opposition Law and Justice party have been warning about a flood of illegal migration in Poland - but official figures do not support their claims.

    I was looking to get my citizenship there through my descendants.

    I stopped when I saw leadership in Poland seems…compromised. I figured if both places I can live are under Russian influence I might as well stay where I know my neighbors.
