In Vaslui county, Romania, authorities discovered an unidentified drone with what appears to be an explosive component near the village of Viișoara, approximately 30 kilometers from the border with Moldova. This occurred on September 1st. Following the discovery, the surrounding area was secured. A bomb disposal team from Romania's Intelligence Service (SRI) was dispatched to investigate the drone.
Preliminary reports indicate the device might have contained explosives, but the drone's ownership and how it ended up in Romanian territory are still unknown. The incident resulted in no casualties or property damage. The investigation will be conducted by the prosecutor's office at the Iași Court of Appeal, who will determine the drone's origin and the circumstances surrounding its crash.
Ahead of the discovery, Romania had issued an air raid alert and deployed aircraft due to the threat of airspace violations during Russian strikes on southern Ukraine's Odesa Oblast. Also on September 1st, Russian attack drones targeted the Orlivka ferry crossing on the Ukrainian-Romanian border, temporarily disrupting its operations.
