Balgarianovinite.com Fallen trees caused serious damage to three cars in the Borovets resort complex, Municipal Enterprise Construction, Repair and Landscaping Director Nikolay Stoynov said on Sunday.
No one was injured, and tourists were taken from Sitnyakovo lift station down to the resort and moved to safety. Stoynov said one bungalow was crushed and the roofs of some outbuildings were torn off.
Staff from Municipal Enterprise Construction, Repair and Landscaping, the Municipal Forestry Enterprise and the Emergency Unit of Samokov Municipality were working at the site. Tourists who were in restaurants near the incident were also moved to safety.
Cleanup was to continue the next day because it was already getting dark, Stoynov added. Dozens of trees fell across an area of about 0.2 hectares, he said.
Earlier on Sunday, Samokov Mayor Angel Dzhorgov activated the BG-ALERT system and the resort’s ski slopes were closed.
Samokov Municipality urged residents and visitors not to enter cordoned-off areas and to follow the instructions of the relevant services.
