NATO condemns 'Russia's recklessness' after drone hit in Romania
NATO condemned Moscow's "recklessness" on May 29 as it confirmed an apartment building in Romania was struck by a drone as Russia attacked Ukrainian infrastructure near the border.
"NATO will continue to strengthen our defences against all threats, including drones," said NATO spokesperson Allison Hart on social media, adding that alliance chief Mark Rutte was in touch with Romanian authorities.
NATO-member nations that border the warring sides are facing increasing risks as overnight air barrages intensify, with Latvia's government collapsing in recent weeks due to scrutiny of its defense capacities following a stray Ukrainian drone incursion.
"During the night of May 28-29, the Russian Federation resumed drone attacks on civilian and infrastructure targets in Ukraine, near the river border with Romania," the Romanian defense ministry said.
