Ukraine’s Commander-in-Chief: 2 Russian Kalibr missiles enter Moldova and Romania air space during massive attack on Ukraine

This was reported by the Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Valerii Zaluzhnyi on Telegram.

"Today, February 10, at 10:18 a.m., 2 Russian Kalibr cruise missiles crossed the state border of Ukraine with the Republic of Moldova. At approximately 10:33 a.m., these missiles crossed the airspace of Romania," Valerii Zaluzhnyi said.

He also said that after that the missiles re-entered Ukrainian airspace and were launched from the Black Sea.

Air Force spokesman Yuriy Ihnat commented on the Russian invasion of the airspace of Romania and Moldova in a commentary to UP journalists. He emphasized that "the Ukrainian Air Force had the opportunity to shoot down these enemy missiles, but understood the risks and threats to the population of a foreign country, so they did not do it immediately." The spokesman added, "This is not the first time Russia has organized provocations involving the violation of foreign airspace. In particular, this was previously recorded in Moldova."

Later, the Moldovan Defense Ministry confirmed that a Russian missile had violated the country's airspace.

"The Ministry of Defense, together with the responsible structures of the country, are closely monitoring the situation in the region and strongly condemn the violation of the airspace of the Republic of Moldova," the ministry said.

Thus, the missile allegedly flew over the village of Mocra (Rîbnița district, Transnistria), and then over Cosăuţi (Soroca district).

Romania did not confirm Zaluzhnyi's information about the Russian missile incursion.

"The information that a Russian missile was supposed to fly over Romanian airspace has not been confirmed. We will come back with official information on this situation in the near future," said Romanian Defense Ministry spokesman Brigadier General Constantin Spinu.

• On the morning of February 10, the Russian army attacked Ukraine with missiles: explosions and air defense were reported in several regions. In Kharkiv region, 7 people were injured.
