Somali pirates have released a ship and its crew nearly six months after they were seized.
The 45,000-tonne Asian Glory was hijacked 1000km off the Somali coast on 1 January.
The foreign ministry in Bulgaria said the British-flagged vehicle carrier was expected to head for Oman under British escort.
The BBC reports it is not known whether a ransom was paid for the release of the ship and its crew, who were mostly from eastern Europe.
