The authorities moved in to stop the blockade of the livestock breeders, who were marching on the road connecting Bulgaria and Turkey, reports Standartnews.
There is no official statement on arrests, but it is known that there are no serious injuries as a result of the clashes.
On Wednesday, one stockbreeder was arrested amidst the blockade of the Trakia highway near Plovdiv.
