The shooting had put Fico in critical condition at the hospital and had to undergo surgery for several hours. "Fico was brought to our hospital and was treated at our vascular surgery clinic," said the local hospital director, Handlova Marta Eckhardtova.

Deputy Prime Minister of Slovakia, Tomas Taraba, who also serves as Minister of the Environment, told BBC Newshour that Fico is expected to survive and is no longer in a life-threatening condition. "I am very surprised... fortunately, as far as I know, the operation went well -- and I believe he will ultimately survive... he is not currently in a life-threatening condition," said Taraba.

According to Taraba, one bullet penetrated Fico's stomach, while another hit his shoulder. Fico, who won the general election last September, served as prime minister four times. He is a veteran politician who is accused of altering his country's foreign policy for the interests of the Kremlin.

Since taking office last October, Fico has made a series of statements that have worsened relations between Slovakia and its neighboring country, Ukraine.

One of them was when Fico questioned the sovereignty of Ukraine and called for compromise with Russia, which has been invading since 2022. After he was elected, Slovakia stopped sending weapons to Ukraine. He promised during the election campaign not to give a single bullet to Ukraine.

"He also triggered mass protests with controversial changes, including media laws that according to critics would weaken the impartiality of public television and radio."
