Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov told parliament that Bulgaria deals with thousands of agricultural blazes and hundreds of forest fires every year, and the Air Force has gear ready to handle them. The government's trying to build up permanent firefighting capacity since recent years have been stupidly hot, according to meteorology data.
The Security Council is working on some real-time data transmission system for tracking fires. The 2026 budget apparently sets aside 60 million euros for buying firefighting helicopters, which Zhelyazkov mentioned during the session.
