The Sofia Directorate of Internal Affairs will use video surveillance and drones to prevent an escalation of tension by fans of today's match between eternal rivals -  the teams of Levski and CSKA Sofia at the capital's Vasil Levski stadium. The detected violators will be detained after the end of the sports event, announced Ivan Georgiev, head of the "Mass events" sector at the Sofia Police.


The police warned that there may be difficult traffic in the central part of the city due to "disorganized movement of fans". However, there will be an increased police presence there.

The match is scheduled for 2.45 pm.
