Prime Minister Robert Fico of Slovakia was shot outside the House of Culture in Handlova, causing shockwaves throughout the nation.

The incident, involving four shots, led to swift law enforcement action, with a suspect detained and the scene cordoned off.

Deputy Speaker of Parliament Lubos Blaha confirmed the attack, prompting an adjournment of parliamentary proceedings.

Slovakian President Zuzana Caputova and political opposition leader Michal Šimečka condemned the assault, expressing concern for Fico's recovery.

A circulated video captured the chaotic aftermath as Fico was assisted into a waiting vehicle, though his condition remained uncertain.

The shooting has reignited debates about Fico's leadership, marked by polarising rhetoric and controversial policies.

BIG ATTACK on Russia’s Druzhba Pipeline | Hungary, Slovakia Oil Flows Suspended amid Ceasefire Talks

A major escalation in Europe’s energy war: Russian crude oil flows to Hungary and Slovakia through the Druzhba pipeline have been suspended after an alleged Ukrainian attack on a transformer station. Hungary’s Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó called the disruption “outrageous and unacceptable,” while Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry implied Hungary should blame Russia for starting the war. The halt comes just days before Trump, Zelensky, and EU leaders are set to meet — raising fresh questions about NATO unity, Europe’s energy security, and the future of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. #Ukraine #Russia #Hungary #Slovakia #Oil #Pipeline #Druzhba #Trump #Zelensky #NATO #EnergyCrisis #EU ~HT.318~ED.346~PR.152~

Hungary’s WW3 Warning: Ukraine’s EU Membership ‘Will DRAG’ Hungary Into Battlefield | Ukraine War [Video]

Hungary’s WW3 Warning: Ukraine’s EU Membership ‘Will DRAG’ Hungary Into Battlefield | Ukraine War

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has issued a chilling warning: Ukraine’s potential EU membership could drag Hungary and the entire Eastern European region into war. Speaking bluntly, Orban said Ukraine’s entry would turn Hungary into a battlefield, risking the lives of young Hungarians and destabilizing regional peace. Despite Ukraine’s 2022 EU candidacy and Brussels pushing for 2030 accession, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia have voiced serious opposition, citing security, financial, and political consequences. Orban also slammed the EU's seven-year budget proposal, claiming it's designed to fund Ukraine’s membership and could devastate the bloc. Hungary has already blocked several EU military aid packages to Kyiv and insists on a ceasefire. A recent referendum showed 95% of Hungarians oppose Ukraine’s EU entry. With mounting pressure from Brussels, Orban’s words now echo across a fragile Europe—will Ukraine’s EU dream come at the cost of continental peace? #UkraineEU #OrbanWarning #HungaryUkraine #EUMembershipCrisis #RussiaUkraineWar #EUExpansion #GeopoliticalRisk #EasternEuropeConflict #UkraineNews #HungaryNews #EUvsRussia #NATOExpansion #EuropeanUnion #BrusselsVsBudapest #HungarianReferendum #UkraineBorderCrisis #PolandUkraineTensions #SlovakiaOpposesUkraine #StopUkraineEU #RegionalWarThreat ~HT.318~

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico stunned NATO and EU allies after rejecting proposed sanctions on Russian energy, calling them “ideological” and harmful to Slovakia’s economy. At a press conference, Fico questioned why Slovakia should pay high gas prices due to the Ukraine conflict, citing a €16–20 billion contract with Gazprom lasting until 2034. He warned of potential lawsuits if the contract is broken and predicted that “we’ll all cooperate with Russia again.” His remarks underline a growing rift in Europe over energy strategy and long-term Russian ties. #RussiaSanctions #RussiaUkraineWar #Russia #Ukraine #NATO #Slovakia #NATOAllies #Putin #RussianOil #SlovakPM #GasPrices #EnergyCrisis #RussiaUkraine #EuropeanUnion #GasContract #FicoStatement #EnergyNews #SlovakiaRussia #BreakingNews #RobertFico Also Read Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc 'Something Happened To This Guy': Trump Slams Putin For Russia's Fresh Attack On Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/something-happened-to-this-guy-trump-slams-putin-for-russias-fresh-attack-on-ukraine-4163675.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Says Russia-Ukraine Ceasefire Talks To Begin 'Immediately' Following Call With Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-says-russia-ukraine-ceasefire-talks-to-begin-immediately-following-call-with-putin-4158165.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.125~

Ukraine Unveils New DEADLY Neptune Missiles | Putin’s Oreshniks Now Face Fearsome New Rival

Ukraine has revealed an upgraded version of its Neptune missile, the same weapon that sank Russia’s Black Sea flagship Moskva in 2022. The new Neptune boasts a range of 1,000 km — tripling the reach of the original model — and potentially carries a warhead twice as powerful. Kyiv showcased the missile in a new Independence Day video, fueling speculation it was used in a May strike on Russia’s Novorossiysk naval port. Analysts suggest the upgrade includes larger fins, improved maneuverability, and possibly new guidance or infrared homing systems. The announcement comes as Russia parades its Oreshniks missiles, sparking a symbolic duel between Ukraine’s homegrown firepower and Putin’s arsenal. With Ukrainian production ramping up alongside the new 3,000 km Flamingo missile, Kyiv signals it no longer depends solely on Western weapons. The Neptune-Orsheniks face-off now symbolizes the technological arms race defining the Russia-Ukraine war. #Ukraine #Russia #NeptuneMissile #Orsheniks #MissileShowdown #Putin #Zelensky #UkraineWar #UkraineWeapons #MissileStrike #Kyiv #Novorossiysk #Moskva #FlamingoMissile #UkraineDefense #RussiaUkraineConflict #LongRangeMissiles #MilitaryTech #UkraineStrikes #BreakingNews ~ED.420~HT.408~
