Early on Friday explosions could still be heard near the military storage facility in Sofia's district of Chelopechene after yesterday's huge blast caused panic in the capital.
The explosions this time were light, as most of the ammunition stored there have already exploded, army officials said.
According to authorities, the situation in the area is getting back to normal and a special team would be able to enter the danger zone today.
