Avioane militare americane retrase din Bulgaria
Two US tanker planes have left Bezmer Air Base in Bulgaria, following a deployment that raised concerns in Iran. The US requested their temporary presence under a military facilities agreement. Iran condemned the deployment as complicity in aggression, a claim Bulgaria denied. The planes' departure was confirmed by Bulgarian Defense Minister Dimităr Stoianov, who stated that all flights were training missions and there were no direct threats to national security. He dismissed conspiracy theories regarding a Russian plane monitoring the base.
