Press Information

On Wednesday, February 25, the Russian Federation launched new airstrikes on the Ukrainian ports on the Danube.

 

MoND radars signaled the presence of a drone in the area adjacent to the national airspace, which determined the preventive activation of air defence systems, and at around 5:50 p.m., two F-16 aircraft deployed to Feteşti Air Base were scrambled, according to air policing procedures.

 

At 18:07, a RO-alert message was issued for the population in the north of Tulcea County.

 

The unmanned aerial vehicle briefly entered the national airspace, in the area of ​​Sfântu Gheorghe, without endangering people's lives, and exited north of Sulina, flying only over the territorial waters.

 

Alert measures ceased around 6:45 p.m. and no aerial vehicle debris was identified in the area.

 

The Ministry of National Defence strongly condemns the Russian Federation's attacks on the Ukrainian civilian infrastructure. These actions represent a serious violation of international law and a threat to regional security.
