Zelensky's plane almost hit by drone en route to Oslo: Norway PM
Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store claimed on Wednesday that a plane carrying Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was almost hit by a drone en route to Oslo. However, a source within the Ukrainian presidency dismissed the claim as exaggerated. According to the source, the incident involved a Russian drone entering Moldovan and Romanian airspace.
Moldova closed its airspace due to the drone and delayed several flights, but lifted the restrictions after the drone was destroyed around 160 kilometers from Chisinau International Airport. Consequently, Zelensky's flight to Oslo was delayed. Zelensky met with Store and other Norwegian officials to discuss military and civilian aid during his stay in Oslo.
