The ban on drinking water and bathing in the sea in Tsarevo municipality is still in force. The decision was taken by the Regional Health Inspectorate in Burgas after the results of the third samples, taken after the floods on 5 September were announced today. 

The readings show that the water for domestic use is still unfit for drinking and the sea water is still not considered safe for bathing. Samples are to be taken today for analysis for the fourth time, reports Daniela Kostadinova of BNR Burgas.
