Twice now the death toll has been changed from 7 to 8 without references being provided. I realise that it is likely that there will be a greater death toll as the very seriously injured succumb, but any changes made to the article must be backed up by reliable sources. Bulgarian language sources are acceptable, as they can be run through Google Translate, which does a fairly good job and enables the source to be checked.

The casualties are seven. This is confirmed by the Government. [1]
There was some contradicting info about the number. Seven is the number confirmed by Rumyana Bachvarova, Vice-Premier Minister and Minister of the Interior. She is on site since Saturday, chairing the extraordinary state committee handling the emergency. The state police, gendarmery, fire and rescue services and the civil protection services are departments in her ministry.
So far there is confirmed information for:
7 dead
29 hospitalised after the incident
1 resident of Hitrino assisted the casualties and the fire brigades from the start, but later that day his general physical condition deteriorated (stress, exhaustion...) and was also hospitalised.
Most of the patients have been discharged as of December 13, but still around 10 are in the Shumen General Hospital, the Naval Hospital in Varna and the Saint Marina University Hospital also in Varna, including three patients in critical condition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.62.200.43 (talk) 15:07, 13 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
