The fire area is currently not growing, Agriculture Minister Miroslav Naydenov told the Btv channel early on Tuesday.
The wildfire in the Bistrishko Branishte resersve started at about 2 pm on Sunday; about 10 acres of forest with fir trees were on fire on Sunday afternoon in a largely inaccessible region.
