Bulgarian authorities discovered an explosive device on Tuesday in a van parked just outside the capital Sofia’s international airport.

 

“An explosive device had been found in the van,” Sofia airport spokeswoman Daniela Veleva said, adding that police were still trying to dispose of the device.

 

Bulgarian police had earlier evacuated a section of the airport’s Terminal 1 while bags seen in the van were checked.
