Warning of an explosive device in the Pazardzhik Municipality building

A signal was received by the duty officer at Pazardzhik Municipality about a potentially explosive device, said Miroslav Stoyanov, spokesperson for the Regional Directorate of the Ministry of Interior. According to him, the danger was assessed as serious and an immediate security response was launched.

So far, the area around the administrative building has been cordoned off, police officers and municipality employees have been evacuated from the scene. A thorough inspection of the site will take time, as the building is large, Stoyanov clarified.

The actions continue under the leadership of competent authorities, with no further details at the moment about possible suspects or the recipient of the threat.
