Brussels, Sep 10 : NATO has no indication that Russia intended to hit the alliance in light of the recent strikes on Ukraine’s Danube ports, close to the Romanian border, and fresh drone debris found on the NATO member’s soil, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said on Saturday.
Earlier in the day, the Romanian Defense Ministry said that fragments of a drone “similar to those used by the Russian army” were discovered some 2.5 kilometers (1.5 miles) southeast of the border village of Plauru, marking the second such incident in a week. On Wednesday, debris from a possible drone was found close to Romania’s border with Ukraine, but NATO said it had no information indicating any intentional attack by Russia.
“Spoke to [Romanian President Klaus Iohannis about] Russian attacks on Ukraine by the Danube [and] drone parts found in Romania. No indication of intent to hit NATO, but the strikes are destabilizing,” Stoltenberg wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
