Bulgarian police reportedly suspect woman was involved in Burgas attack

The bomber in a terror attack last week at Burgas Airport in Bulgaria that killed five Israelis was aided by a woman, according to a report Monday in the Bulgarian press. In another report, Bulgarian news channel BTV said the bomber spoke Russian and entered the country through Romania.
The identity of the perpetrators of the attack has yet to be established by the authorities.
On Sunday, a Bulgarian news site said a US citizen by the name of David Jepson was suspected of involvement in the attack.
Jepson was based in the Bulgarian coastal city of Varna, north of Burgas, and gave “guidance” to the bomber, according to the report on the site novonite.com. The site stressed that the information was unconfirmed.
It said Jepson was captured on CCTV footage at Varna airport at the end of June, had spent a few nights staying at a hotel near the Festival Congress Center in downtown Varna, and had not been seen since the bombing. Police suspect he is still in Bulgaria, the report claimed.
