At least seven dead in Bulgaria tourist coach bomb

At least seven people are thought to have been killed in a terrorist attack on an Israeli tourist coach at the Burgas airport near Bulgaria’s popular Black Sea resorts. 
Bulgarian news websites reported that three buses were in flames after an explosion ripped through a coach carrying 44 Israeli tourists from Tel Aviv.
Unconfirmed witnesses told Israel's Channel 2 televison channel that a suicide bomber boarded the bus and a huge explosion immediately followed.
The blast came at 17:30 local time (15:30 BST) and has been confirmed as a terrorist attack by Bulgarian interior ministry officials.
According to 24 Chasa news people have been admitted in a critical condition to hospital in Burgas.
"Shoshi", an eyewitness, told Voice of Israel Radio: "We went through passport control and waiting for us representatives deposited them in buses by the hotels. We put the bags in the trunk, and after a few minutes, the bus exploded in flames. Then we returned to the terminal, and now we are trying to determine who is missing and who is dead. People who survived the explosion escaped from the window, and could not step over the bodies. The bus was shattered on both sides.”
