Ukraine alleges Russian drone exploded on NATO territory despite ‘categorical denial’

Ukraine says that a Russian drone purposely attacked an area belonging to Nato and EU member country Romania.

Romania’s defense ministry strongly rejected the reports and condemned the unfair attack on Ukrainian port facilities on the Danube river.

If what Kyiv says is proven to be true, this could be a big change in the war Russia has been fighting in Ukraine for the past year and a half.

NATO has a promise to help each other if any member gets attacked.

According to Ukraine’s border guard service, a big Russian attack happened near the port of Izmail last night. Russian rockets fell and exploded on Romania’s territory. Ukrainian foreign ministry spokesperson Oleg Nikolenko shared this information on Facebook.

This new information confirms that Russia’s missile threat is a big danger to Ukraine and nearby countries, including Nato members.

Romania says that Russian drones did not land in their country.
Nikolenko shared a picture of a big fire on the other side of the Danube River.

This is the line that separates Ukraine’s Odesa region from Romania’s territory, and in certain places, the distance between the two sides is just a short distance of a few hundred meters.

The president’s main staff member said it is very important to get more modern defense weapons to stop Russia from using drones and missiles.

Andriy Yermak said on Telegram that Ukraine needs more weapons and missiles that can be shot from far away to help reclaim our territories faster.

Russia needs to be beaten in a war.

In simpler terms, Romania is keeping an eye on the situation. They mentioned that Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s infrastructure have not directly threatened Romania’s land or territorial water.

In the past, drone attacks have come very close to the shores of Romania.

In late July, a video captured an assault on a grain storage facility in the town of Reni, Romania. The attack caused a bright glow in the sky.

President Klaus Iohannis said that this is a big problem for the safety of the Black Sea.
