Military physician Luděk Hána became the new director of the Central Military Hospital in Prague on Wednesday, July 1, 2026. He was appointed to the position by Defense Minister Jaromír Zůna of the SPD. Hána replaced the previous director, Václav Masopust, who had requested a transfer some time ago. seznamzpravy.cz ↗
According to available information, Luděk Hána's name had been circulating among people from the military healthcare sector as a favorite already during the selection process. The appointment thus put an end to speculation about who would lead one of the country's most important healthcare facilities. When the leadership changed, Minister Zůna called for continuity in the quality of care provided by the hospital. ekonomickydenik.cz ↗
The change at the head of the Central Military Hospital (ÚVN) comes after a period in which the hospital also drew attention due to a police raid. It was after this raid that the previous director, Masopust, requested a transfer. The information provided does not reveal further details about the circumstances of the raid or about the specific tasks given to the new director upon taking office. idnes.cz ↗
At the same time, Jaromír Zůna also ordered a review of part of the Flyer 72 HD light attack vehicle project, which the government of the United States donated to Czechia. An internal audit is meant to show whether and how the reviewed part of the project was carried out. Thus, on the same day, both personnel and oversight measures are proceeding at the Ministry of Defense. novinky.cz ↗
