Helen Haines, parlamentară australiană, în stare critică după un atac cu mașina

Australian independent MP Helen Haines is in critical condition after being intentionally struck by a vehicle outside her office in Wangaratta. A 43-year-old man has been arrested following the incident, which occurred approximately three hours northeast of Melbourne. Haines, 65, was airlifted to the hospital, and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese stated that it is too early to determine the motive, with the suspect being investigated by a special anti-terrorism unit. Albanese expressed support for Haines and her family during this difficult time. The police confirmed there is no ongoing threat to the public, and Haines suffered serious injuries to her lower body. Her family thanked those who assisted her immediately after the incident.
