BUCHAREST, Nov 25, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Romania and Moldova on Tuesday announced drone incursions in to their airspace, and Bucharest deployed four fighter jets after a night of massive Russian air strikes in neighbouring Ukraine.

Romania and Moldova have repeatedly seen violations of their airspaces, including drone fragments falling onto their soil, following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

Moldovan police said a village was evacuated after drone fragments fell on a house in the Cuhurestii de Jos region of the Floresti district, which adjoins Ukraine.

"The police technical explosives unit is on its way to the scene. People have been evacuated and the area cordoned off," they said.

Romania's defence ministry meanwhile said the first drone "crossed the national airspace" from Vylkove in Ukraine to the Chilia Veche area in Tulcea County in the country's east.

"Two German Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft were scrambled from Mihail Kogalniceanu Air Base to monitor the situation," it said.

Two F16 planes were subsequently sent and a second drone incursion was then detected in the eastern Galati region, the defence ministry added.
