It is indicated that a message about a floating mine was received the previous day from the civilian ship Monterrey. A helicopter, minesweeper and auxiliary ship searched for him. The mine was found 27 nautical miles from the mouth of the Kamchia River, which flows into the Black Sea near Varna. It was destroyed by controlled explosions.
