Bulgaria Investigates Company Tied to Hezbollah Explosives
News summary

Bulgarian authorities are investigating the involvement of Sofia-based Norta Global Ltd. in the supply of explosive pagers to Hezbollah, which detonated in a series of attacks in Lebanon, resulting in at least 37 deaths and over 2,900 injuries. The Bulgarian State National Security Agency stated that there is no record of the pagers entering the EU via Bulgaria and that customs procedures were not conducted for such goods. Local media reported that Norta Global acted as an intermediary in the transaction, sourcing the devices from Taiwan's Gold Apollo, while Hungarian sources indicated that BAC Consulting was involved but had no manufacturing capabilities. Israel is believed to have orchestrated the attacks, although it has not officially confirmed its involvement. The investigation is ongoing, with authorities in Bulgaria and Hungary collaborating to trace the origins of the devices. Despite the allegations, Norta Global claims to be engaged only in management consulting services and denies any link to the incident.
