A man drowned in an underground garage of a building in the Elenite resort, the Burgas regional administration has reported, quoted by BTA. His body was found during a search by fire department officials.
Rescue teams continue to search the buildings. So far, six women, three of whom are from Poland, have been evacuated from the resort in the Nessebar municipality.
At this stage, off-road vehicles are having difficulty reaching flooded buildings in some areas. Reports of people in distress, as well as cars and buildings under water, have been received. Teams have been sent from Nessebar and Pomorie and divers and are also on site, it was reported.
One person is being sought – an excavator worker at “Elenite”, Deputy Interior Minister Toni Todorov has told journalists. Around 50 people in the four most endangered buildings have climbed to the higher floors and are now safe.
The Deputy Minister also said that due to the heavy rainfall in the districts of Burgas, Montana and Pernik, a state of emergency has been declared.
