 It is a syrphid, Brachyopa sp. I am unable to determine it up to species.
Majte sa!

 r5 is curved backwards apically in Hammersmidtia, see https://diptera.info/photogallery.php?photo_id=4388
Thus this Slovak fly should be Brachyopa.

 I would say, Brachyopa scutellaris would not be a wrong guess. Yellow scutellum and humeri are not so common in this genus.
