Russian missiles cross NATO border for the first time - Air Force spokesman Ihnat on Kalibrs over Romania

Ukraine's Air Force could have shot down enemy missiles that entered the airspace of Romania and Moldova, but did not do so because of the risks to the foreign countries' population

Air Force spokesman Yuriy Ihnat said this during the telethon.

“Two enemy missiles were observed by radar over the territory of a NATO country, and from there they entered the Chernivtsi region. This is the first time that the Russian forces' missiles have crossed the border with NATO countries,” he said.

In particular, Ihnat also emphasized that the Air Force could have shot down missiles, but there was an obvious threat that missile debris would fall on the territory of these countries. That is why no missiles were shot down in that area.
