Worse, according to BBC News, Romania now says a Russian drone has breached its airspace - the second NATO country to report such an incursion.
-
Romanian fighter jets were in the air monitoring a Russian attack in Ukraine last Saturday and were able to track the drone near Ukraine's southern border, the Defence Ministry said, according to the BBC.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy says the incursion could not be a mistake - it was "an obvious expansion of the war by Russia."
Moscow has not commented on the Romanian claims. Poland says it has shot down at least three Russian drones that entered its airspace.
Romania's Defence Ministry says it detected the Russian drone when two F-16 jets were monitoring the country's border with Ukraine, after "Russian air attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure on the Danube."
