Romania confirms that parts of the Russian drone fell on Romanian soil

Romanian Defense Minister Angel Tilvar has confirmed that parts of a Russian drone fell on Romanian territory after targeting a Ukrainian port on the Danube River, which runs along the border between the two countries.

Tilvar spoke to CNN Romanian affiliate A3CNN while visiting the area on Wednesday.

The defense ministry initially denied reports earlier this week that parts of a Russian drone had fallen on the Romanian side of the Danube.

Ukraine's Danube ports have been under heavy and prolonged Russian bombardment in recent weeks as Moscow targets Ukraine's grain storage facilities and infrastructure after allowing the Black Sea grain deal to expire in July.

Many of the attacks have taken place just across the border from Romania, a NATO member. Romania's defense ministry condemned an attack earlier this week "in the strongest possible terms", calling it "unjustified and deeply contrary to the rules of international humanitarian law".

There were other drone strikes on the Ukrainian side of the river in the early hours of Wednesday, one of which killed a farm worker, according to a Ukrainian official./ CNA
