Bulgaria has finished dismantling its stockpile of 100 Soviet-made SS-23 Scud and Frog ballistic missiles, Reuters reported today (see GSN, Oct. 2).  An explosion that injured four workers at a plant had temporarily halted the destruction effort earlier this month.

“Overcoming some serious hurdles, Bulgaria destroyed the warheads of the missiles, guaranteeing safety and environmental protection,” Sofia said today (Reuters, Oct. 31).
