Investigation into the Causes of the Devastating Fire in Bulgarovo Begins Amid Damage Assessment
Authorities have initiated a large-scale operation to assess the damages caused by the massive fire that broke out on Saturday at noon in the "Loznitsite" villa zone near Bulgarovo. The fire, which destroyed properties and thousands of acres of forest, left behind a devastating landscape and raised serious questions about the causes of the disaster.
The municipality of Bulgarovo is calling on all affected citizens whose properties, agricultural products, or equipment have been impacted by the fire to submit documents for damage assessment. It remains to be determined exactly how aid will be provided to the people who lost their property in the flames. This process is crucial for the rapid recovery of the affected areas and for supporting the local population.
Meanwhile, the Burgas police have taken decisive action to clarify the circumstances that led to the fire. A 45-year-old man who lives in the "Loznitsite" villa zone has been detained for 24 hours. He is the main suspect for causing the fire due to negligence. According to information from law enforcement, the man was performing agricultural work in his yard. With the help of a tractor, he tried to pull a pipe out of the ground, and it is most likely that this activity created a spark that quickly turned into an unstoppable fire.
The incident raises questions about responsibility and safety measures when working with heavy machinery in dry conditions. At the moment, it is still unclear whether the prosecution will officially press charges against the detained man. The investigation continues to establish all the facts and circumstances surrounding the tragic incident.
The devastating fire left deep scars on the villa zone and nature. 20 buildings, some of which were inhabited, were incinerated in the flames. In addition, the fire destroyed 4,000 acres of pine forest, yards, and valuable agricultural products, causing serious economic damage to the owners. Due to the scale of the disaster, a partial state of emergency in the city remains in effect, allowing authorities to mobilize additional resources to deal with the aftermath and assist those affected.
