When I googled the towns in English different info about them popped up :

"The population of the village was massacred in the First World War, by the occupying Ottoman Army."

"Monument dedicated to the Dabnica Massacre 1942. Bulgarian policeman Ivan Stefanov Nedelchev writes his poem: To the heroes in Dabnica."

When googling Dervishka niva there are only Bulgarian and Macedonian ones. Here is what the Bulgarian one says :
https://bg.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A...B8%D0%B2%D0%B0
"Клането в Дервишка нива е убийството на 103 сърбомански свещеници, учители, кметове, членове на комитети, войводи и четници от областта Поречие, Вардарска Македония, извършено от български войници от Македония, начело с капитан Константин Панов..."
"Dervishka niva massacre is the killing of 103 serboman priests, teachers, mayors, committee members, vojvodas and chetniks from the region Porechie, Vardar Macedonia, done by Bulgarian soldiers led by captain Konstantin Panov..."

About Vatasha, the only English result in google on a similar topic was this one :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tikve%C5%A1_uprising
"Tikvesh uprising (Bulgarian: Тиквешко въстание, Macedonian: Тиквешко востание, Serbian: Тиквешки устанак / Tikveški ustanak) was an uprising in the Tikveš region of Macedonia in late June 1913. It was organized by Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization (IMRO) against the Serbian troops in Vardar Macedonia during the Second Balkan War."

About Pusta kula this was the only English one:
http://wikimapia.org/31954646/Massacre-of-Pusta-Kula
"8 people killed by bulgarian police on September the 14th, 1942."

If you don't believe me, google the town names in English. That's pretty much the only results you will get.

One of the three that happened before the 2000s was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloody_Christmas_(1945)
"The Bloody Christmas (Bulgarian: Кървава Коледа, Kărvava Koleda; Macedonian: Крвава Коледа, Krvava Koleda) or the Bloody Bozhik (Bulgarian: Кървав Божик, Kărvav Bozhik; Macedonian: Крвав Божиќ, Krvav Božiḱ) was a campaign in which several hundred people of Macedonian Bulgarian descent were killed as collaborationists by the Yugoslav communist authorities in the Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia between 7–9 January 1945.[1] Thousands of others who retained their pro-Bulgarian sympathies suffered severe repression as a result.[2]"

This topic was not pleasant to research, but I just can't stay here and watch a thread about "Bulgar terror in Macedonia" with 5 links showing articles written in Macedonian with only Macedonian and Serbian sources, while the English results show a very different picture.

Song about the massacre in the Village of Vatasha.



Ми заплакало селото, селото Ваташа,
ми заплакало селото, селото Ваташа,
тринаесет роса младинци носат
Мокришко горе, в долови.

Целото село станало, станало на нога,
целото село станало, станало на нога:
- Дајте ги ваму нашите деца,
еј, вие клети крвници!

Џелати клети не слушат, не слушат народот,
џелати клети не слушат, не слушат народот,
митралез оган фрлија поган
в' градите машки младински.

Тогај се народ подигна, подигна илјадно,
тогај се народ подигна, подигна илјадно,
и тргна смело да запре семе
фашисто-клето за навек.

Partial transription of the trial for war crimes of Asen Bogdanov, former
head of police of the Skopje area (during the Bulgarian occupation), which
took place on November 21, 1948 in Skopje


http://www.makedonika.org/history/20...20Bogdanov.pdf

Public Prosecutor:
- Why did the accused Bogdanov, upon coming to Macedonia, got the
impression that the Bulgarian authorities cannot deal with the Movement for
Liberation?
Asen Bogdanov:
- I got that impression in the second half of 1943, because the Bulgarian
authorities were totally powerless, having no support by the people. The
Macedonian people, except a small percentage, was in a bad mood towards and
considered the Bulgarian authorities as an enemy. The people produced the
participants in the Movement. The systematic growth of the number of those
persons was evident, and the Bulgarian authorities had the support of just a few
individuals.
Public Prosecutor:
- What were your impressions regarding the nationality of the Macedonian
people upon your arrival in Macedonija?
Asen Bogdanov:
- Before I came to Macedonia I was under the impression that here there really
is a Bulgarian element. That notion was planted in our minds for years: that
Macedonia belongs to Bulgaria, that those people are Bulgarian, that the
Bulgarian Empire existed here. It was a great surprise to me. I realized that the
Bulgarian element was present only in few wealthy persons, who came close to
the Bulgarian authorities, a handful of intellectuals that belong to the
organization of our people. All others lived with the notion about their
nationality, about their heritage - that they are Macedonians.
Juror:
- Who organized the special forces for bulgarisation of the Macedonian
people?
Asen Bogdanov:
- They were organized by a decision of the Council of Ministers, under direct
control of the Ministry of Interior.
Juror:
- What was required from the persons sent by the Bulgarian administrative and
police machinery?
Asen Bogdanov:
- They had to be abundant with the notion for bulgarisation of the Macedonian
people and for keeping of these parts, at any cost, under Bulgarian rule. They
had to have the qualities of fighters against the Movement for People's
Liberation.
Juror:
- Did they meet the expectations of their superiors who sent them to
Macedonia?
Asen Bogdanov:
- Yes.
Juror:
- How?
Asen Bogdanov:
- With the struggle they lead and the unconditional application of the
Bulgarian government's measures of terror, liquidation, execution, arson etc.
Juror:
- Who did the killings: was it the military or the police?
Asen Bogdanov:
- Both.
Juror:
- How were they killed: by hanging, slaughter or shooting?
Asen Bogdanov:
- There were shootings, some died after being beaten to death, and some after
being thrown into Vardar [river].
