Prime minister Marcel Ciolacu stated, on Monday, regarding the Russian drones that entered the national airspace, that Romania had a real-time reaction and monitored the situation with F16 planes, noting that these drones have had no targets on the territory of our country.
„If the drones had a target on the territory of Romania, naturally our country would have intervened,” mentioned Ciolacu.
The prime minister appreciated that it is a challenge, mentioning that they are trying to see the reaction capacity of the surrounding states.
On Sunday, the Ministry of National Defence (MApN) announced that the probability of an impact zone was identified on the national territory, in an unpopulated area near the eastern Tulcea town of Periprava, following Russian drone attacks on some targets in Ukraine, noting that two F-16 aircraft of the Romanian Air Force took off from the 86th Borcea Air Base to monitor the air situation.
According to a press release from the Ministry of Defence, Russian forces resumed the series of drone attacks on civilian targets and port infrastructure in Ukraine on Sunday morning, near the border with Romania. The National Military Command Center notified the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations regarding the establishment of measures to alert the population of Tulcea and Constanta counties, being transmitted, at 2:20 and 2:38, RO-ALERT messages.
