People from the Bulgarian Socialist Party headquarters at 20 Positano Street in Sofia were evacuated due to a bomb threat on Saturday morning. The threat was received by email, according to which a bomb had been placed in a building on Positano Street between Knyaz Boris I and Tsar Samuil Streets. 

At 12 p.m., a charity concert for Donbas was to take place in a hall at the party headquarters. Petar Pisarski and Petar Marinov from the Atlas group, Rumen Spasov, Nelly Gergova, Dora Dikova and the Forbidden Symbols group were announced as participants.
