In the past 10 years there have been a number of explosions in warehouses and factories for the disposal of explosives, the production of weapons and ammunition. The Prosecutor's Office and the State Agency for National Security have found similarities in 4 of the cases, Chief Prosecutor's spokesperson, Siika Mileva, reported.

The first case dates back to November 12, 2011 and took place in the village of Dolni Dol. Two other took place in the village of Iganovo in 2015, where a warehouse for finished products of the Vazovski Mashinostroitelni Zavodi was blown up. The fourth case was in 2020 in the town of Maglizh, where an Arsenal-Kazanlak warehouse was blown up. The link between the cases is that the destroyed products were owned by EMCO and arms dealer Emilian Gebrev and were to be exported to Georgia and Ukraine, BGNES reported.
