Regarding the explosion that occurred on the territory of Bulgaria on August 8, at around 08:20 AM, near the border with Romania, the Ministry of National Defense states that the radar surveillance systems of the Romanian MoD did not detect any aerial vehicle crossing Romania's airspace into Bulgaria.
In the context of measures taken by the Romanian authorities to mitigate the effects of the hydrological drought on the national energy system, the Ministry of National Defence is contributing, alongside other state institutions, to the construction of a submerged sill on the Bala branch of the Danube. The works are intended to ensure the water flow required for the safe operation of Reactor 2 at the Cernavodă Nuclear Power Plant.
Allied air detachments have begun their scheduled rotations in Romania and Lithuania as part of NATO’s continued efforts to strengthen its deterrence and defence posture on the Eastern Flank.
