To me these EQs don't seem that important unless they are 7.0+ near a populated area.

i think the fact that 2 people in the thread felt it and said it shook really HARD is important. just because it was less than a 7 doesn't mean it wasn't strong enough to do damage. obviously it was significant judging by the reactions of the people that were there.
After being asked when was the last time such a strong earthquake occured near Sofia, the director of the institute said in 1917, when there was a strong earthquake with an epicenter in the Vitosha fault. Nikolay Miloshev noted that the current earthquakes have no connection with that fault.

might be the culprit, IF these kind of alignments have an influence on plate tectonics, which they may, or may not. i don't know if this is the case, but i don't discount the possibility. or the possibility that i am on the wrong track completely.
