“Former World No. 1 Martina Navratilova Reacts to Mass Shooting Committed by Charles University Student David Kozak”

Accident – death – Obituary News : Former World No. 1 Martina Navratilova has expressed her sadness and condolences following a tragic incident in the Czech Republic. A student of Charles University in Prague, identified as David Kozak, committed a mass shooting, killing 14 people and injuring over 20 others. The incident marks the country’s deadliest mass shooting to date.

While the police have not yet revealed the motive behind the attack, Czech Interior Minister Vit Rakusan stated that there is no evidence linking the shooter to any extremist ideology or groups. Kozak, who was studying Polish history at the university, was found dead. It remains unclear whether he died by suicide or during a confrontation with law enforcement.

Martina Navratilova, a vocal advocate against gun culture, took to social media to share her thoughts on the tragedy. The Czech-born American tennis legend tweeted, “What an utter tragedy… držím palce…” which translates to “I wish you the best” in English.

In a separate interview, Navratilova discussed her views on entering politics. She dismissed the possibility, believing that truth and politics do not mix well. Navratilova expressed her inclination to speak her mind, stating, “I’ve been asked many times but I think truth doesn’t work in politics. I speak my mind way too much. I think maybe as a guy you can get away with it, but as a woman, I just don’t know, but I think I am too old for that.” She further added, “20 years ago, if I was 20 years younger, I would run. But I don’t have the energy for it now, and the skin. Really, it’s just too nasty.”

Navratilova also reflected on her experiences dealing with politics after publicly coming out as a lesbian in 1981. She shared that despite her remarkable career achievements, she was never the first choice for advertisers due to her political identity. “You know, I’ve always been political just by being a lesbian. That’s a political statement too, apparently, and coming from a communist country. So, I never had a chance one way or the other on Madison Avenue, and that’s okay,” Navratilova said.

The tragic incident at Charles University has shocked the nation, leaving many grappling for answers. As the investigation continues, the Czech Republic mourns the loss of innocent lives and seeks ways to prevent such devastating events in the future.
