A truck carries the bus damaged by a suicide bomb blast which targeted a group of Israeli tourists in Bourgas, Bulgaria on July 19, 2012.

Judge Adelina Ivanova sentenced the two men – who fled Bulgaria and were tried in absentia – to “life in jail without parole”, finding them guilty of terrorism and manslaughter. Airport CCTV footage showed him wandering inside the airport’s arrivals hall with a backpack on his back shortly before the explosion that tore through a bus outside the terminal that was headed to Sunny Beach, a popular summer destination on the Black Sea.

According to an investigation into the bombing, they arrived in Bulgaria from Romania in June 2012, and left again on the evening after the attack.
