✅ Verified for Java 26.2 · Bedrock 26.32 — checked June 2026

Summons a witch, a hostile mob that hurls splash potions of Poison, Slowness, and Weakness while drinking healing potions to stay alive. Witches drop useful brewing ingredients like glowstone dust and redstone. Tricky to kill because they self-heal.
