On Thursday, the State Agency for National Security (SANS) stated that customs operations with communication equipment (pagers) have not been carried out through the territory of Bulgaria. The comment was in regard to media publications claiming that a company registered in Bulgaria delivered the targeted goods to the Lebanese organization Hezbollah to be detonated on the territory of Lebanon and Syria.

The agency added that no customs operations were carried out with the foreign companies mentioned in the media.

SANS is carrying out joint inspections with the National Revenue Agency and the Interior Ministry regarding the complicity of a Bulgarian-registered company in the supply of communication equipment for the Lebanese organization Hezbollah.
