Bulgaria avoided the worst of the damage wrought by catastrophic floods in May 2014, when Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, and other areas saw several deaths and billions of euros in property destruction. Thanks to a mammoth downpour at the end of July, however, Bulgaria now joins its neighbors in suffering mass flooding. During the first rains in early June, flooding hit Bulgaria's third largest city, Varna, an important strategic port and economic center. Dozens of people lost their lives an many buildings were damaged, causing several millions of euros in estimated property damage. Heavy flooding reached other cities, like Veliko Tarnovo and Dobric, as well.
