Forty-six people had been taken to hospital after two pile-ups on the Trakia Motorway near Yambol on Tuesday, Health Minister Katya Ivkova told journalists at Dr Ivan Seliminski Hospital in Sliven.
The crashes occurred in dense fog near the Zimnitsa junction.
Ivkova said 10 people died in the crashes and two others died in hospital, one in Yambol and the other in Sliven. She added that the situation was still evolving.
Eight patients were admitted to the Military Medical Academy hospital in Sliven, seven to two hospitals in Burgas and 12 to a hospital in Yambol.
Ivkova offered her condolences to the families of those killed and described the crashes as particularly serious.
She praised the coordination among emergency medical crews and the Interior and Defence ministries. The Prime Minister had made Spartan military transport aircraft and the government aircraft available, she said. Seriously injured patients could be flown from Burgas Airport to Sofia for hospital treatment if medical teams deemed a transfer necessary.
Hospitals in Sofia were on standby, Ivkova said. Hospitals in Plovdiv, Haskovo and Stara Zagora could also take patients if needed.
“We are ready to save as many lives as possible,” Ivkova said.
Dr Ivan Seliminski Hospital Executive Director Vassislav Petrov said 18 patients had been brought directly to the hospital from the crash scene. Thirteen had been admitted and one discharged. The others were still being assessed.
