General Mirosław Różański honored at state funeral

State funeral ceremonies were held in Międzyrzecz to honor General Mirosław Różański, a former commander of the General Command of the Armed Forces and a recent Senator of the Republic of Poland. The ceremonies included a mass at St. Wojciech Church and were attended by high-ranking officials, including Senate Marshal Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defense Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz.
