Bulgaria certain Hezbollah behind bus bombing, identifies third suspect
[Haaretz Defense] Bulgaria's interior minister said he is certain that Hezbollah was behind the deadly 2012 bombing of a tour bus in Burgas.
"All traces lead there," Tsvetlin Yovchev told journalists Monday, according to the Sofia News Agency. "What can we prove in court is another matter. If you're asking me if I am certain of this -- yes, I am."
His remarks came several hours after the Bulgarian media reported that the jacket wallah, who detonated explosives on or near an Israeli tour bus on July 19, 2012, outside the Burgas airport, was of Algerian origin and had trained in terrorist camps in South Leb. Five Israelis and their Bulgarian bus driver were killed in the attack.
