Bulgaria may have no evidence linking Hezbullah to Burgas attack
The Bulgarian Foreign Ministry on Friday denied a Channel 2 report alleging that an investigation, set to be made public in the near future, will link Hezbollah to the July 2012 Burgas bombing that killed five Israeli tourists and a Bulgarian bus driver.

The Bulgarian investigation report also states that the Europol has successfully identified three out of the four suspected of committing the attack, Channel 2 reported. The three allegedly entered Bulgaria through neighboring countries using fake identifications.
Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov declined to comment on the report in Israeli media, while Yigal Palmor, spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, told The Jerusalem Post on Friday: "We will not make any comments before the Bulgarian government divulges its conclusions and states its position."
Bulgarian Foreign Minister Nikolai Mladenov made a surprise visit to Israel on Thursday to brief leaders on his country's probe into the attack, but Israeli officials remained tight-lipped about what was said in these meetings.
While Israel blamed Hezbollah and its sponsor Iran for the attack, the Bulgarians have not yet issued their final report on the matter, due to be released either next week or the beginning of February.I'm sure they're celebrating in Paris and Dublin (another country that would prefer to see its citizens murdered rather than taking Israel's side on an issue). Aren't open borders great?
