The aftermath of Rotterdam's serial shooter arrest continued to unfold, with media comparing Sendric S. to notorious criminals like Jos Brech and Gökmen Tanis. Police explained their delayed warning strategy, citing concerns about public panic. The morning brought a deadly police raid in Rotterdam-Kralingen, resulting in one fatality and two injuries after the arrest team faced gunfire.
By midday, attention shifted to Suriname, where thousands accompanied Desi Bouterse's funeral procession, the former leader displayed in military uniform and sunglasses. The procession lasted hours before reaching the party headquarters.
Meanwhile, media covered systemic issues: the UWV's recovery operation leaving thousands without support, Amsterdam's cultural sector facing subsidy cuts, and a government focus on a single company's nitrogen-reduction technology. Weather warnings for slippery conditions persisted throughout the day.
