Last update: 11 hours ago

President Security Alert: Costa Rican authorities arrested a man over a suspected death threat to President Laura Fernández, and she had been evacuated after a blast was heard near an illegal gold mining zone. Regional Politics: The U.S. State Department declined to back Fernández’s remarks about Nicaragua, reiterating that Ortega and Murillo pose a threat to regional security and human rights. Tourism & Economy: Costa Rica is reporting sustained growth, with 1.39 million air arrivals in Jan–May 2026 (+9.4%), alongside an infrastructure push to handle demand. Legal & Social Security: Costa Rica’s Administrative Court halted CCSS retroactive collections from self-employed workers, saying the agency can’t base retroactive charges solely on income tax declarations. Environment & Development: The Constitutional Court accepted an appeal to suspend logging permits for 748 trees in Playa Panamá, ordering immediate stoppage while judges review the case. Weather Watch: Tropical Wave No. 12 is expected to bring heavy rains and thunderstorms across multiple regions starting Tuesday. Sports (Costa Rica tie-in): FIFA named Romanian referee Istvan Kovacs for the World Cup’s 1,000th match Japan vs Tunisia in Monterrey, with Costa Rican Juan Calderón as fourth official.
