The military blew up the uncrewed aircraft near its flagship gas field once Kyiv confirmed they weren't Ukrainian.

Romania found two Russian drones bobbing in its sea—and didn’t wait to ask questions

Romania's military took decisive action against two Russian drones found drifting in its Black Sea waters, destroying them with the assistance of bomb-disposal divers. The incident occurred near an offshore gas field, located approximately 90 nautical miles east of Constanța. Acting Defense Minister Radu Miruță revealed the operation on Facebook, sharing a video of the event.

The drones, identified as Gerberas, were subsequently confirmed by Ukraine not to belong to their nation. The wreckage from this air conflict over Ukraine now frequently appears in the waters and on the land of nearby NATO countries, forcing them into a conflict they did not initiate.
