<span><span><span><span><span><span>“I don’t know. All I know is that drones identified as Russian-made are entering Romanian airspace without permission and in violation of international law, given that Romania is not at war,” </span></span></span></span></span></span><span><span><span><span><span><span> he said.</span></span></span></span></span></span>

Earlier, Romania declared one of the staff members of the Russian Embassy in Bucharest persona non grata following a series of violations of the country’s airspace by Russian drones. At the same time, the Russian ambassador was summoned to the Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and presented with a note of protest. 

Bucharest noted that the decision was a response to repeated violations of Romanian airspace on July 24–26. During that time, the Romanian military shot down three drones that had illegally entered the country’s territory.
