Spokesman for Ukraine’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Oleg Nikolenko, said this in a post on Facebook, Ukrinform reports.

"According to the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, last night, during a Russian massive attack in the area of the port of Izmail, Russia’s Shaheds fell and detonated on the territory of Romania," he wrote.

"We call on our partners to accelerate the provision of Ukraine with additional modern anti-missile and anti-aircraft defense systems, as well as combat aircraft, which will strengthen the protection of the infrastructure of Ukraine, as well as neighboring countries," the MFA spokesman stressed.
