Following another discovery of drone parts in the Romanian Danube Delta, the Foreign Ministry in Bucharest accused Russia of violating the NATO country’s airspace and summoned the Russian ambassador. Romanian news agency Mediafax reported this today, citing the ministry.
The newly found wreckage belonged to a “drone similar to those used by the Russian army,” the Foreign and Defense Ministries agreed. NATO allies have been informed and are discussing developments on the border between Romania and Ukraine, the Foreign Ministry said.
After delta residents alerted civil protection, the Romanian air force found the drone wreckage with shrapnel several tens of meters away, near the villages of Victoria and Nufaru. It is about 14 kilometers as the crow flies from the border with Ukraine, on the Sfantu Gheorghe branch of the Danube.
Last week, drone debris “similar” to Russian drones was found in two locations near the village of Plauru, as explained by the Ministry of Defense.
