A wildfire has been raging near the village of Sopovo, located in the municipality of Boboshevo in western Bulgaria.

The fire initially originated in pastures, but later spread to beech and oak forests, daily Dnevnik reports.

More than 20 foresters are involved in extinguishing the fire, along with four fire engines, a specialised vehicle for extinguishing forest fires, while a bulldozer is headed for the area.

The most likely cause of the fire is human negligence after a nearby stubble was set on fire, private bTV station informs.
