Romania Scrambles F-16s After Russian Drone Attacks Near Border
Romania scrambled two F-16 fighter jets from the 86th Air Base in Borcea after Russian drone attacks targeted civilian and port infrastructure in Ukraine near the Romanian border. The Romanian Ministry of National Defence condemned these strikes as unjustified violations of international law and alerted residents in Tulcea County through the RO-Alert emergency system. Ukraine reported that it intercepted many of the drones involved in attacks across multiple regions, including the port city of Izmail near the Romanian border. Romania has previously faced incursions by Russian kamikaze drones, with past incidents prompting Romanian jets to intercept drones but restrictions under national law preventing their shooting down. NATO agencies were promptly informed and remain in contact with Romanian authorities as the situation unfolds, emphasizing the regional security threat posed by these attacks. The Romanian Air Force base involved regularly hosts NATO air policing missions, highlighting Romania's strategic importance in the alliance's response to Russian aggression.
