The temporary accommodation centre in Elhovo is being closed. All of the more than 200 refugees from Ukraine who are still in Elhovo out of the 600 initial arrivals, will be transported to state–run facilitates around the country by 6 buses on 2 June.
Tensions ran high in Elhovo on 1 June, with the head of the State Agency for Refugees Mariana Tosheva arriving to monitor the process. Some of the refugees were not happy with the conditions at Elhovo, especially those with small children. Mariana Tosheva explained that lists were being drawn up and the needs of the people, as described in the questionnaire they have filled out, will be taken into consideration.
