Bulgaria dismisses claim of responsibility

Bulgaria's foreign ministry dismissed a statement issued by Qaedat al-Jihad in which the group claims responsibility for the terrorist attack against Israeli tourists in Burgas.

Bulgaria is thus aligning itself with Israeli and US estimates that the attack was carried out by Hezbollah and not a Global Jihad affiliate.
