In the morning roads from Turkey to Bulgaria through the border crossings "Kapitan Andreevo" and "Malko Tarnovo" were blocked. Protesters claim they have information according to which 1,000 buses with emigrants, who are eligible to vote in Bulgaria, were expected to arrive from Turkey.

Police presence at border checkpoints has been increased. Traffic from Bulgaria to Turkey is not obstructed.
