Two hundred children from flood-hit villages were transported this morning to their schools in the town of Karlovo in vans provided by the company Automagistraly.

Thanks to the donations of clothes, shoes, backpacks and money, some of the children said they had everything they needed for the new school year. On the first day of school, Mariana Mancheva, principal of Vasil Levski School, presented certificates to the students who participated in the clean-up of the flooded villages.

Starting today, for the next three weeks, 480 soldiers armed with shovels and wheelbarrows will remove the dirt from the yards of the flood-affected houses. General Deyan Deshkov, commander of the 61st Mechanised Brigade, said the timeframe for the operation could be shorter if the military had more light equipment and tractors.
