"This so-called 'information' has no real basis," the Ministry said in a statement.
The Defense Ministry claims that the Russian attacks targeted Ukrainian port infrastructure on the Danube, not Romanian territory, and that Romanian forces and equipment in the border area with Ukraine did not fire at Russian drones.
Romania condemned these Russian attacks against Ukrainian civilian infrastructure, calling them unjustified and stating that they seriously contradict international law.
