This is the witness who first got to the bus: I didn't feel like oil, but I did smell like a burnt tire.

Nikollov works at a 500m facility in the vicinity of the disaster site.

I heard an explosion but I couldn't figure out what it was. We dropped off with our colleague into the country and found something burning. First, it burned less, but then the fire was reinforced. We came here to help but there was no way. There was a lot of flames, we couldn't get near”, Ilija told BNT.

According to him, there were some people on the left side of the bus.

I could not understand where they came from. We called 112 and got reflectors to signal the cars coming. A lot of drivers stopped cars and ran to help. Police came 17-18 minutes later and then we left for the base. It smells like a burnt tire. I didn't smell any oil. I don't know if the fence kept the door open, it was too dark and couldn't see what was going on. ”, the witness said, transmits root. mk
