A naval mine discovered in the area of Maslen Nos, near Bulgaria's Primorsko, has been neutralised, the Bulgarian Navy announced. After a check by military specialists, it was found out that the mine was of the YaM-type, which is identical to the mines placed off the Ukrainian coast.

Moving the mine was dangerous, so it was decided to destroy it in place after the area was cordoned off and secured.
