Bulgarians head to the polls to elect a president as deadly Black Sea drone strikes and economic hardship dominate

Russia's war in Ukraine has spilled onto Bulgaria's doorstep, and voters are going to the ballot box with it front of mind. Drone attacks on shipping in the Black Sea have proved deadly, pushing security to the top of the campaign. Households are also struggling with economic hardship, the other big issue of the race. Voting is under way across the country, with no result yet declared.

The Ukraine war has shaped a campaign that is otherwise dominated by bread-and-butter money worries.
