Slovak General Zmeko urges three-day water reserves, calls for crisis manual

Slovak Chief of Defence Daniel Zmeko publicly advised households to stock water for three days, framing it as prudent crisis preparedness rather than a response to imminent war. The statement, while explicitly denying war is on the table, signals a shift toward civilian resilience planning in Slovakia amid regional security concerns. The intent is to institutionalize crisis protocols, but the timing and public nature may fuel speculation about threat levels.
