The Bulgarian Army Disposed of Dangerous Ammunition Across the Country

Bulgarian military personnel and cadets from the Vasil Levski National Military University have successfully neutralized several unexploded munitions found in various populated areas across the country. These operations, carried out in strict compliance with safety protocols, once again highlight the key role of the Bulgarian Army in ensuring the security of the civilian population. The news was announced by the press service of the Ministry of Defense, which confirmed the effectiveness and professionalism of the specialized teams.

Special Operation in the Northwest: "Buhalka" Type Grenade Destroyed at Butov Dol Range

The military's actions were led by Captain Petar Simeonov, who headed a specialized formation from the Tenth Mechanized Battalion - Vratsa, part of the 3rd Brigade Command - Blagoevgrad. The team successfully destroyed a "Buhalka" type hand grenade, which was found in the attic of a private house in the town of Byala Slatina. The operation to neutralize the dangerous object took place today at the Butov Dol range in strict compliance with all safety measures.

Such actions always require coordination at the highest level, with this operation being carried out after an official request from the Chief Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, with the permission of the Chief of Defense, and by explicit order of the Commander of the Land Forces. These formalities ensure that every step is taken with maximum responsibility.

Cadets from VTU Neutralized 80mm Mine Found in Ruse

In another major event, a team of military personnel from the Vasil Levski National Military University in Veliko Tarnovo destroyed an unexploded munition that was found yesterday. The explosive, an 80mm mine with a fuse, was found during the routine cleaning of a basement room in a private house in the town of Ruse. Upon arriving at the scene, the military ascertained the nature of the munition, and its subsequent destruction was carried out at the Belyakovets training range. According to the official announcement, the operation was flawlessly executed, with all safety protocols followed to ensure there was no risk to the civilian population or the specialists themselves.

The Ongoing Fight Against Historical Dangers: Such Operations Are Routine for the Army

The Ministry of Defense recalled that these are not isolated cases. At the end of August, military personnel neutralized another unexploded munition, this time found in Pleven. These incidents serve as a clear reminder of the long-term danger posed by abandoned or forgotten explosives from past conflicts. Specialists from the Bulgarian Army are often called upon to deal with such threats, demonstrating a high degree of training and determination. Their work is essential for ensuring the tranquility and security of Bulgarian citizens.
