Sky News reports this with reference to the Romanian Ministry of Defense.

It is noted that the farm is located near the Danube River, which divides Ukraine and Romania in the southwestern part of Ukraine.

Several military search teams were dispatched to Great Braila Island for investigation, local media report.

Local residents report hearing "strange sounds" and have shared footage showing a drone falling from the sky.

"On the evening of 28 March, fragments that appear to have come from an aerial device [drone] on a farmland in the Great Braila Island were identified. The Ministry of National Defence, together with specialised structures within the national defence system, public order and national security, is conducting an investigation of the incident on Friday 29 March according to specific operational procedures," stated the defense department.

This occurred after Moldova's authorities reported three explosions near its border with Ukraine overnight, according to local media reports.

On the evening of March 28, the Russian army launched several groups of Shahed drones, and in the early hours of March 29, it attacked Ukraine with cruise missiles and ballistic missiles.

  • During Russia's morning attack on Ukrainian territory, a Russian cruise missile flew into Poland, forcing the country to raise its own and allied aircraft. The Polish Foreign Ministry said it would demand an explanation from Russia for the next such incident.

  • The Russian ambassador ignored a summons to the Polish Foreign Ministry after the missile incident.

  • The Polish Armed Forces General Staff explains why they did not shoot down a Russian missile on the border with Ukraine.
