Russian drones exploded in Romania – news Urix – Foreign news and documentaries

Two Russian drones are said to have detonated on Romanian territory. – According to Ukraine’s state border guard service, Russian “Shaheds” fell and detonated on Romanian territory during the massive Russian attacks near the port of Izmajil last night. This is according to Oleg Nikolenko, spokesperson for the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, according to the Reuters news agency. “Shahed” is a type of drone used by Russia. The drones are said to have hit Romania during the attack against the nearby port city of Izmail in Ukraine last night. Much infrastructure and several warehouse buildings were damaged by dozens of Russian drone attacks. – This is yet another confirmation that Russia’s missile terror poses a major threat not only to Ukrainian security, but also to the security of neighboring countries, including NATO member states, says Nikolenko. Romania is a member of NATO. NATO’s Article 5 states that an armed attack against a member state shall be considered an armed attack against the entire alliance. Romania denies At the same time, the Romanian Ministry of Defense denies that Russian drones have hit the country. That is written by Reuters. Images nevertheless show what is supposed to be the alleged detonation of the Russian drones on the Romanian side. It is therefore unclear what has detonated. Russia has not yet commented on the claims by Ukraine. – No need for increased tension Tormod Heier, professor at the Norwegian Defense Staff School, thinks it is interesting that Romania so quickly rejects the messages. – I don’t know if it has happened, but if it has, it is interesting that the Romanians so quickly reject it. The country has a strong vested interest in not escalating the tension, says Heier to news. He believes it is most likely a technical failure, and not a premeditated provocation from the Russian side. – Romania does not need increased military tension with Russia. It is typically a sign of weakness. It may indicate that they do not trust NATO. Attack on grain city In the course of several hours, Russia attacked the city of Izmajil, one of Ukraine’s most important ports for grain exports, last night. The governor of the city told people to stay indoors while the airstrikes continued. The port city has been attacked several times in recent weeks.
