The explosions near the village of Gara Elin Pelin continue, caretaker Minister of Interior Kalin Stoyanov said. Heavily equipped specialists have entered the 6th warehouse of the "Enigma" company and have secured unexploded pyrotechnics. A body was found during the inspection. It has not yet been identified. One more person remains missing, most likely in the room where the explosions started and where everything is destroyed, added Kalin Stoyanov.

 An investigator and a prosecutor are arriving Sunday morning for an initial inspection. There is still danger, said Minister Stoyanov. There are two living witnesses at the time of the blasts. One is a security guard who evacuated 48-year-old Associate Professor Petar Shishkov and his 20-year-old daughter Kristin Shishkova, who later died.
