Northern Hungarian PM Robert Fico was shot yesterday while visiting Nyitrabánya in Trencsén county. News says 5 shots were fired, most of them hit the target in the torso. He's in hospital recovering after long surgery. He'll live, for now it seems. The attacker is a 71 yo. poet from Léva, apparently a political activist, who was "associated with a pro-Russian paramilitary group". How much this is true I dunno. He "may face life sentence". Considering his age, it will very well may be. He said he did not want to kill Fico, just hurt him. https://spectator.sme.sk/c/23330459/slovak-premier-shot-handlova.html https://spectator.sme.sk/c/23330893/slovak-pms-attacker-charged-with-revenge-homicide.html
