Drone crashes in Romania after flying undetected at 'very low altitude'
The Romanian Ministry of Defence said the drone had crashed in a wooded area and that there were so far no recorded casualties or damage to property or infrastructure.
Romania confirmed on August 14 that there is no evidence of an increased risk to its population despite four drone incidents that occurred on the same day. The incidents, which involved drone wreckage in four locations across the country, did not result in harm to people or property. The debris found on Romanian soil is being analyzed by specialized teams following established protocols.
No increased risk to Romania's population has been indicated at this time. Romania has been actively monitoring the situation in response to intensifying strikes in the Black Sea and near the Romanian border due to Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine. The debris discovered in areas such as Greci, Plauru, Saturn, and Costinesti is being examined, and the origins of the drones remain undetermined.
Romania's Defense Ministry stated that these incidents are collateral effects of the increased attacks on the Black Sea and have increased surveillance measures accordingly.
