Search operation unsuccessful, missing Slovak has not yet been found

A 43-year-old Slovak citizen has been missing for over a week after disappearing in the area of Upper Posočje. Search efforts have included rescue dogs, police helicopters, and drones, but no significant clues have been found yet. The search focused today on areas around Log pod Mangartom and the wider region between Bovec and the border crossing at Predel. Police used a helicopter to inspect rivers, steep slopes, and other hard-to-reach areas, including parts of the Goriška Hills. In the afternoon, searches continued with firefighters and drone operators near Predel and Log pod Mangartom, but were halted by poor weather conditions. The man arrived in Slovenia on Friday, June 12, cycling from Italy through Čepovan to Tolmin, and then headed toward Log pod Mangartom the next morning. His cycling app confirmed he reached the target area, and his last contact with family was on Saturday, June 13, at 7 PM, when he said he was setting up accommodation near Log pod Mangartom. His phone then went offline, and no further traces of him have been found.
