Burgas Airport is gearing up for a busy summer season with increased flights, new destinations, and a projected double-digit growth in passenger traffic compared to 2024. The airport will offer over 70 routes to more than 20 countries, including new connections to Krakow, Poland, and expanded services from low-cost carriers.

Hundreds of mourners gathered in Yambol to pay their respects to Marin Marinov, a UN employee who tragically lost his life in Gaza. The service was a poignant display of grief and solidarity, with Marinov's family, friends, and colleagues from the UN joining forces with representatives of the Palestinian Association in Bulgaria.

The Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has confirmed that there are no reports of Bulgarian citizens injured in the recent earthquake in Myanmar. The ministry is monitoring the situation and has sent a message to all Bulgarian citizens registered in Thailand through the "I am traveling for..." section on the ministry's website.

The Sofia Municipality's #ForestInTheNeighborhood initiative is a significant undertaking to enhance the city's green spaces. With the goal of planting around 835 trees across 11 districts, the initiative provides an opportunity for volunteers and donors to actively participate in creating small green oases in their neighborhoods.

Bulgarian leaders, including President Radev and Prime Minister Zhelyazkov, extended Ramadan Bayram greetings to the Muslim community, emphasizing the importance of understanding and tolerance during these challenging times. Political and religious leaders also joined in wishing the community a joyous and blessed holiday.
