More than 350 Bulgarian cargo vehicles are waiting on the long line in Dover to leave Great Britain. Another 130 trucks are parked on a parking lot, Yordan Arabadjiev, Executive Director of the Union of International Haulers, told BNR's Horizont channel. 

"The situation is extremely difficult. We hope that the traffic will resume by noon on December 23. A flight is provided for drivers who want to return to Bulgaria without trucks. However, they will be required to undergo a PCR test before flying to Bulgaria. So far, 90 people have voiced willingness to return", Arabadjiev said.

The Embassy of the Republic of Bulgaria in London warned of fake messages on the Internet about a charter flight to Bulgaria organized by the embassy and that fees were required from those who wished to use this flight, BNT reported.
