Bulgaria Today – 27 June 2024

In “Bulgaria Today” on Thursday, June 27, we bring you, first, the latest news from this country.

Next on the show: According to Ottoman documents, around 500 dervishes once lived near the present-day village of Bivolyane in the municipality of Momchilgrad. They were trained at Elmala Baba Teke, a renowned religious centre that was once the largest dervish hub in the Balkans. The centre boasted a library of over 3,000 books, many of which have sadly been lost. Our correspondent Valya Apostolova reports from Kurdzhali that locals believe the tomb of Fatima, the beloved daughter of the Prophet Muhammad, is inside the Teke.

Finally, in our music slot, we've got '100 Reasons' - the latest track from pop singer Maria Ilieva.
