The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses “strong protest” in connection with the incident caused by the uncontrolled fall in Romania of a drone used to attack Ukrainian port infrastructure overnight from Wednesday to Thursday, and says that it will summon the head of the Russian diplomatic service mission in Bucharest.

Romania’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs says the incident is “a new violation of Romanian airspace in violation of international law.”

• “The Ministry of Foreign Affairs insists on stopping the repeated attacks on the Ukrainian population and civilian infrastructure, as well as the irresponsible escalation of the security situation by the Russian Federation, including on the border between Romania and Ukraine. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs once again strongly condemns these attacks on civilian targets, which violate the norms of international humanitarian law and are considered war crimes.
• The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been informing and conducting consultations with NATO allies regarding the development of events on the border between Romania and Ukraine, including today’s incident.
• The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will also summon the head of the diplomatic mission of the Russian Federation,” the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
