The latest data on the state of sea waters after the explosion of the wall of the Nova Kakhovka dam in Ukraine show no pollution in Bulgarian waters, the Ministry of Environment and Water said. 

The outlook remains favourable for the country's Northwest Black Sea waters, as potential contaminants remain along the Ukrainian coast. "Bulgarian waters of the Black Sea are clean. Preliminary forecasts show that no pollution is expected in the next 10 days," Tourism Minister Zaritsa Dinkova confirmed at a meeting with tourism industry representatives in Burgas. 

In her words, a hybrid campaign is being waged against Bulgaria both at home and abroad, which the ministry, the industry and the media must oppose together to protect the "Bulgaria" brand.
