On Sunday, 92 Bulgarian citizens and one Croatian were evacuated from Israel and landed in Sofia.
Bulgaria's Minister of Transport, Georgi Gvozdeikov, announced that the evacuations will continue as long as there are Bulgarian citizens willing to be taken out of Israel. He added that other countries in the EU have expressed a desire for Bulgaria to transport their citizens and, if possible, this will be done.
