Two NATO members said Sunday that Russian drones violated their airspace, as one reportedly flew into Romania during nighttime attacks on neighboring Ukraine while another crashed in eastern Latvia the previous day.
A drone entered Romanian territory early Sunday as Moscow struck “civilian targets and port infrastructure” across the Danube in Ukraine, Romania’s Ministry of National Defense reported. It added that Bucharest had deployed F-16 warplanes to monitor its airspace and issued text alerts to residents of two eastern regions.
It also said investigations were underway of a potential “impact zone” in an uninhabited area along the Romanian-Ukrainian border. There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage.

Shoot the shit down!
As they are flying through the airspace back into Ukraine, they don’t want to shoot them down in the risk that they fall on something in their country instead.
Well the drone crashed in central Latvia and it came from Belarusian airspace. Luckily it didn’t hurt anybody but what if it did? I think better to shoot it down when it’s relatively safe to do so
Ah that’s new case then. They have to evaluate each one and decide what’s safest then, my point being that sometimes the safest thing to do is to not shoot it down.
You are absolutely right
well, shoot them the fuck down, fuck, what are they even doing
Solution is simple: Declare an air safety zone around NATO borders with a few hundreds km into Ukraine and shoot down every goddamn thing coming from the terrorists
More than a little embarrassing that Belarus does a better job protecting their airspace from Russian drones than every NATO border nation combined.
They should park air defense at the border, coördinatie with Ukraine and shoot down incoming russian drones in range.
Better yet do some low speed low elevation bullshit in their airspace in desolate bumfuck nowheresville and let the locals relay it. Who did that? Nobody really knows
And you better not do it again - or else!
