The Bulgarian sailors from the Tzarevna, which is stranded in the port of Mariupol, should be home by Easter at the latest, the ship’s owning company has said.
The evacuation operation , started three weeks ago, was secret, that is why the sailors were not informed of it. The pressure proved too much for one of the crew members and he decided for himself to leave the ship, and contacted the Russian separatists. Later, evacuation was offered to the other sailors as well. Five remained on board of their own free will, manager Daniel Stefanov said for the BNR.
“They have the option to be evacuated at any time. We are in constant contact with them. They have no problem with food. They are on contact with their families,” Daniel Stefanov said.
