It is 6 years today – 18 July – since the terrorist attack at Sarafovo airport in Bourgas, when a suicide bomber blew up a bus, killing five Israeli and one Bulgarian national, and wounding dozens.
Every year a ceremony is organized to commemorate the victims at the memorial erected on the spot where the attack took place. The trial in which the Lebanese citizens Meliad Farah (also with an Australian passport) and Hassan El Hajj Hassan (also with a Canadian passport), were charged in absentia, began at the Specialized Criminal Court in January this year. The two are charged with aiding and abetting the suicide bomber Mohamad Hassan El-Husseini. Six years after the terrorist act there are no convictions.
