Bulgaria says Hezbollah behind Burgas bombing


    SOFIA (Reuters) - Two individuals with links to Lebanon's militant group Hezbollah were involved in a bomb attack on a bus in the Bulgarian resort of Burgas last July that killed five Israeli tourists, Bulgaria's interior minister said on Tuesday.

    "We have established that the two were members of the militant link of Hezbollah," Tsvetan Tsvetanov told reporters.
