On October 9, two masked individuals set fire to 11 out of 17 Starlink communication antennas at a satellite communications facility near Sofia, Bulgaria, suspected to be Teleport Plana. The incident was publicly disclosed on October 12 by MP Ivaylo Mirchev. Bulgarian Prime Minister Rumen Radev urged the head of the State Agency for National Security, Plamen Tonchev, not to reveal details of the ongoing intensive investigation to avoid jeopardizing the operation. The investigation involves cooperation with foreign intelligence partners, though no confirmed link to Russia or coordination with a similar recent attack on a Starlink ground station near Warsaw, Poland, has been established. Bulgarian Interior Minister stated security at similar facilities has been strengthened nationwide following the incident.
