Small flying objects increasingly frequent on Romania's sky amid Russia's attacks on Ukraine
<p>The radar system of the Romanian Army spotted again two unidentified flying objects close to the border with Ukraine on the night of October 23 to 24, when two F-16 fighter jets were lifted to monitor the objects but failed to establish visual contact.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Eventually, the radar also lost contact, and the military will now investigate potential areas of impact, <a href="https://www.news.ro/social/update-mesaj-alert-nord-estul-judetului-tulcea-cetatenii-avertizati-exista-posibilitatea-caderii-unor-obiecte-zona-granita-ucraina-mapn-sistemele-radar-au-indicat-doua-tinte-aeriene-doua-avioane-f-1922402223002024102121812077?mc_cid=986210933e&amp;mc_eid=cd1f92f96c" rel="noopener" target="_blank">News.ro</a> reported.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"The radars continuously tracked the target's path, which headed towards the municipality of Tulcea, with the radar signal for this target being lost at around 21:00, 12 km northeast of the town.&nbsp;At approximately 21:20, radar surveillance systems once again detected an air target signal in an area 2 km northwest of Lake Razim. This target, most likely different from the first, followed a route towards Mihai Viteazu in Constanța county and later towards Jurilovca in Tulcea county, where it disappeared from the radar at around 21:40, 9 km northwest of the locality," the Ministry of National Defence (MApN) reported.</p>

<p>Such events are increasingly frequent, and the routes followed by the objects, which are highly likely Russian drones, are rather diverse.</p>
