Sophia decided to restart the plant, which produced Soviet-style 122mm ammunition. They will only be delivered to Ukraine.

After 35 years of inactivity, the Bulgarian plant Terem in the city of Kostents resumes the production of 122 mm shells. The ammunition will be provided exclusively for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, according to The New York Times.

It was noted that the start of production of ammunition at the plant is good news for the residents of Kostenets, as it means an increase in jobs. The plant stopped producing 122mm shells in 1988 when the Cold War ended. Soon the conveyors will start working again – 35 years after the last 122-mm shells left Terem.

According to the publication, last month, representatives of the US embassy quietly attended a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new production line in Kostenets.

The NYT also reported that the ammunition plant in the city of Sopot switched to a 6-day work week to meet Ukraine’s ammunition needs.

At the same time, the sources of financing the production of shells are not public. The publication added that the Bulgarian government, or investments from Western countries, could finance the production.

Earlier it became known that in the spring of 2022, Bulgaria secretly supplied ammunition to Ukraine and was able to provide up to a third of the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the initial phase of the war with Russia.

Bulgaria will send around 60 soldiers to train the Armed Forces of Ukraine
