1. In 1952 an underground ammunition depot was built under a hill located about
300 meters from Dupnitaa (now Stanke Dimitrov), on the right hand side of the
road leading to the cemetery. The depot has two steel-door entrances located
about 50 meters apart. In front of the entrances there is a small electric
plant which supplies the depot with electricity. The depot is guarded by
soldiers.
2. One kilometer from Obradovtsi (N 42-44o E 23-21) and about 200-300 meters from
the main highway leading from Obradovtsi to Svetovrachene (N l2-1.7, E 23-24),
on the left side of the road, there is an oak tree grove located on a hill.
Within this grove there are an unknown number of surface and underground
ammunition warehouses. These are guarded by soldiers who have police dogs
which are let loose at night.
3. Gasoline and kerosene storage tanks are located a short distance north of Sofia,
by the railroad line to Varna. There are 19 such tanks, of 50 tons each, standing
on concrete bases.
