It’s been 8 years since the attack at Sarafovo Airport in Bourgas, in which five Israeli tourists and a Bulgarian bus driver were killed. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the memorial service in front of the victims' monument has been postponed. Official guests from the Israeli embassy will not be present too, honorary consul Orlin Mandov said. However, dozens of people are expected to lay wreaths and flowers at the monument. It was built on the site where the terrorist detonated the bomb in 2012.
