Prime Minister Galab Donev Thursday called on institutions and media to show empathy with the people of Turkiye and Syria by flying the Bulgarian flag at half mast on Friday. His letter was prompted by the devastating earthquakes which hit Southeastern Turkiye and Northwestern Syria, with a death toll exceeding 19,000, and the seven-day mourning in Turkiye.

The Prime Minister sent the letter to the National Assembly, the President, all the ministries, the National Ombudsman, the National Audit Office, the Bulgarian National Bank, the regional governors, the mayors, the Bulgarian National Television and the Bulgarian National Radio, the state agencies, the state commissions, the executive agencies and the administrative entities established by law.
