Landslide threatens Sveti Vlas and Elenite: Dimitrov's warning

Steliyan Dimitrov is sounding the alarm about a dramatic landslide threatening the area between Sveti Vlas and the Elenite resort complex.

Dimitrov, a parliamentary advisor to the Members of Parliament from the political party "Vazrazhdane" in the 50th National Assembly, expressed serious concerns about a potential disaster looming over the Black Sea region.

In a post on his personal Facebook profile, the lawyer warned of an existing risk, which, in his words, could lead to a "much greater tragedy" than the recent floods on the Southern Black Sea coast. These floods, we recall, took the lives of four people in the Elenite holiday village.

Tension around the problem escalated yesterday when police entered the buildings of the Municipality of Nessebar, the Regional Directorate "National Construction Control" (RDNSK) – Burgas and the Regional Inspectorate of Environment and Water (RIOSV) – Burgas. This happened in connection with the inspections ordered after the devastating flood that hit the area.

According to Dimitrov, who has many years of experience in the field of real estate, there is a huge risk area above the latest complexes in the area. He describes the problem in detail: "A very large area is outlined with the red line, which is threatened by a grandiose landslide! Along the red line, right above the complexes, there is a huge crack. It has been gradually widening over the last ten years and in some places it is already more than a meter".

Dimitrov emphasizes that the process affects the entire slope. He expresses serious concerns about the future of the area if adequate measures are not taken.

"I personally have no doubt that sooner or later the entire slope will collapse and everything you see below will be buried, unless some adequate measures are taken," the lawyer says. He adds that in such a scenario, there is a danger that the Elenite resort complex will be "completely cut off from the world", as both roads leading to it fall within the dangerous zone.

Steliyan Dimitrov pays special attention to the condition of the road infrastructure in the landslide area. "...the lower detour was closed for the last seven-eight, or maybe more, years, but I recently found that without any additional reinforcement activities it has been re-asphalted and reopened to traffic," he points out, emphasizing the potential danger that this poses.
