Today marks one year since the hijacking of the ship "Galaxy Leader" by the Houthis in the Red Sea. On this occasion, a prayer service for the health and freedom of two Bulgarian sailors, who are still held in captivity, was held at the Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker church in Varna.
The event was attended by friends and relatives of the two men, as well as the company's manager, Capt. Zoltan Sulay. Sulay reported that a few days ago the two Bulgarian sailors communicated with their relatives and that they were well. He added that they had not been forgotten and the Bulgarian state, represented by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the presidency was working hard for their release.
