Residents of Bulgaria's Black Sea city of Varna staged Sunday a new protest rally against the joint Russian-Bulgarian South Stream natural gas pipeline project.

There are about 1 000 houses located in the two areas, and half of them are occupied permanently.

The project for building the new facilities has been approved by the Bulgarian Ministry of Environment and Waters, but the protesters plan to challenge the environmental impact assessment, which became ground for giving the green light.
