This is the best summary I could come up with:
Slovakia’s Prime Minister Robert Fico is fighting for his life after he was shot multiple times following a government meeting on Wednesday.
The populist prime minister won a general election last September and has faced widespread criticism for polarizing politics in the central European nation with pro-Russian comments and a push to extend state control over the media.
“Utterly shocked by today’s brutal and reckless attack on Slovakia’s Prime Minister Robert Fico, which I condemn in strongest possible terms,” outgoing Slovak President Zuzana Čaputová said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
A video apparently filmed at the scene showed Fico’s security detail lifting him under the arms and loading him into the back of a black limousine.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said: “I am deeply shocked by the news of the cowardly attack on Slovakian Prime Minister Fico.

Good to hear he is still alive. I wish him a very slow and arduous recovery.
