* NATO:

Czechia is marking the 25th anniversary of the country’s accession to NATO. The milestone event in the country’s history is the main focus of a conference at Prague Castle titled “Our Security is Not a Given”.

* WEATHER:

Tuesday is expected to be overcast and rainy with some wind. Daytime temperatures should hover around 7 to 9 degrees Celsius.

* HEALTH:

Some 608 new cases of whooping cough were registered in Czechia in the past week, the State Health Institute said in a press release. There have been 2,273 cases since the start of this year, mostly in the South Bohemian, Central Bohemian, and Vysočina regions.

* POLITICS:

Former US President Bill Clinton will receive a state award from Czech President Petr Pavel at noon on Tuesday at Prague Castle, the president’s office has announced, without disclosing any further details. Clinton is currently on a visit to Prague to attend a security conference on Tuesday. He already received one Czech state award, the Order of the White Lion, in 1998.

* PRAGUE:

The final phase of the multi-year reconstruction of the Barrandov Bridge began on Monday. The closure of the access ramp from Strakonická and the repair of the northern part of the bridge is expected to complicate traffic in the city until August. Throughout the reconstruction, traffic on the bridge will be limited to three lanes in each direction instead of the usual four.
