Russian drones detonated inside Nato territory across the Romanian border, Ukraine said on Monday.
Russian Shahed drones targeting the port of Izmail on the Danube river fell across the banks and detonated in Romanian territory, according to a spokesman for Ukraine’s foreign ministry.
“According to Ukraine’s state border guard service, last night, during a massive Russian attack near the port of Izmail, Russian ‘Shakheds’ fell and detonated on the territory of Romania,” Oleg Nikolenko said.
Mr Nikolenko posted a photo showing the flames of an explosion on the opposite bank of the Danube river, the dividing line between Odesa and Romanian territory.
Bucharest “categorically” denied the claims and said that the attack on the Danube River port did not pose any direct military threat.
