Inside Bulgaria's Easter Celebrations: Traditions Passed Through Generations
Today marks the joyous celebration of Easter, one of the most significant holidays in the Orthodox Christian calendar.
Foreign Minister Daniel Mitov advised Bulgarian citizens traveling to Turkey to register beforehand at the website of the foreign ministry.
Mitov's advice comes in the aftermath of Tuesday's terrorist attack at Istanbul Ataturk airport which claimed the lives of at least 42 people and left hundreds other injured.
Speaking to journalists in parliament on Thursday, he confirmed earlier reports that the foreign ministry has no information on any Bulgarians killed or injured in the attack.
There were cases of Bulgarians not being able to contact their relatives, but these have been solved.
Mitov assured that the Bulgarian consulate and embassy in Istanbul are in constant contact and have readiness to react at any time.
The foreign minister once again asked Bulgarian citizens traveling abroad to register through the “Traveling to” electronic service available at the website of the foreign ministry.
The registration takes only several minutes to register, but provides Bulgarian diplomatic missions with the opportunity to react very quickly and get in touch with fellow nationals abroad if the need arises.
Mitov also advised citizens to inform themselves about the latest developments in each country they are visiting or passing through.
