Another four survivors of the tragic bus accident on Bulgaria's Struma motorway were discharged from Sofia's Pirogov emergency hospital today as they would be transported with North Macedonian and Serbian ambulances back home. One of the persons injured in the accident is still in the neurosurgical ward of the hospital for further monitoring.

The horrific bus accident claimed 45 lives. 7 people were hospitalized at Pirogov Hospital for Emergency Medicine. 

Two people were discharged from Pirogov on Saturday- a seventeen-year-old girl and a forty-nine-year-old man. Currently, they are being treated in Skopje. Meanwhile, North Macedonia’s Minister of Foreign Affair Bujar Osmani said that Skopje is expected to receive the bodies of the deceased by the end of the week.
