Romania isn’t happy. On Friday, a Russian drone reportedly entered its airspace for a very short period of time.

The incident occured for less than 3 minutes in the skies over Romania, but enough to anger the Romanian ministry, which condemns the Russian attacks and describes them as “unjustified”. According to the ministry, this is a violation of international law.

On Friday night, Russian drones targeted Ukrainian civilian infrastructure, not far from the Romanian border. The Romanian authorities also specified that a Russian drone had “potentially” violated their airspace around 3am.

To monitor the area, Romania deployed two Spanish F-18 jets as well as two of its own F-16 jets between 1:52am and 3:22am.

Although no impact zone has been identified in Romania, the ministry has launched an investigation.
