Romanian authorities have launched the controlled blasting of ice in Romania's Danube territorial waters near Kalarasi in order to prevent floods and free the movement of waters.
The controlled explosions are carried out by Romanian military forces some 40 km from the Bulgarian Danube town of Silistra, the Bulgarian National Radio has informed.
