A drone of the Naval School "Nikola Yonkov Vaptsarov" monitors from the sky the ship Vera Su stranded near Kamen Bryag, the Ministry of Defense announced.
The Maritime School is part of an interdepartmental team formed to reduce potential risks and release the vessel, the ministry said.

The aircraft will continuously monitor the situation during the light part of the day, according to the Ministry of Defense, which also provided video footage taken with the VVMU drone in the area of the stranded ship near Kamen Bryag.
