Not the first case
Since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Romania has repeatedly reported that it has found the debris of Russian drones on its territory.
For example, after Russia's attack on Ukraine on July 31, new drone fragments were found in Romania in the Ceatalchioi area of Tulcea County.
Also, on August 20, fragments of Russian drones were found again in Romania.
In addition, according to the Air Force, on the night of September 8, a Russian drone flew into Romania from the Odesa region. At the same time, residents of the Romanian counties bordering Ukraine received notifications about the threat of falling objects.
