Thousands of people joined a silent march through central Krakow on Monday night, in memory of those killed and injured when a gunman went on a violent rampage at the weekend.

The crowd were led by Poland's president and prime minister, the bitter political rivals putting on a rare show of unity after the country's deadliest attack in modern times.
