Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov has tasked the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Interior to carry out preventive security checks of state-owned and private military enterprises. The aim is to urgently strengthen security measures after explosions erupted at a private manufacturer's ammunition warehouse near Karnobat on June 25. At the end of July 2022, there was another explosion at the site of the same company, which traditionally exports products to Ukraine. The owner then announced that the case was most likely arson. After the latest incident, the owner confirmed that the scheme used was the same as in the previous explosion.

In addition to the security of citizens and businesses, a government's priority is also overall support for the development of the Bulgarian defense industry, which is key to the country's economy, the Council of Ministers added.
