A specialized team from the Naval Base – Burgas from the composition of the Navy carried out a task to examine, transport and destroy four shells extracted from a vessel, found today on the beach of the town of Sinemorets, in the “Korabite“ area, the Ministry of Defense announced.
Due to suspicion of the presence of residual explosives that cannot be extracted, the vessel was detonated with a controlled explosion.
The servicemen acted at the request of the Regional Administration – Burgas and with a positive resolution from the Chief of Defense Admiral Emil Eftimov.
The group for reconnaissance, marking, extraction, transportation and destruction of unexploded ordnance from the Naval Base was activated by order of the Commander of the Naval Forces Rear Admiral Kiril Mihaylov.
The specialized team transported the shells to the Naval Base - Burgas, and the vessel was destroyed on site in strict compliance with safety measures.
A drone and a drone wing found in the Black Sea were neutralized by Navy servicemen in early April.
