Authorities have arrested a couple in an operation codenamed 'Kuba' after they allegedly offered their minor daughter for sex over the internet for nearly a year. This comes as a separate report details the tragic death of an oncological patient who was reportedly left in a hospital storage room without a mattress. In the political arena, Erik Tomáš, the Minister of Labour, Social Affairs and Family, and Viliam Karas, a KDH expert, are debating the controversial 'thirteenth pensions,' with Karas labeling them a 'political trap.' Meanwhile, a commentary by Peter Weiss suggests that the government, led by Prime Minister Robert Fico, is primarily focused on protecting its own power and impunity under the guise of sovereignty. Analyst Grigorij Mesežnikov, President of the Institute for Public Affairs, also commented on Russia's influence in the country, stating that Vladimir Putin does not need tanks in Slovakia because he has Fico. Other domestic news includes a climatologist's discussion on the potential for prolonged drought, and concerns about widespread mental health problems among generations coupled with a perceived lack of support. On a more positive note, a new accessible viewing platform offering panoramic views of a popular mountain has been unveiled.
