JAKARTA - Russian drone attacks damaged port infrastructure in southern Ukraine. Moldovan authorities said two drones exploded in its territory and Romania.
Kyiv said Moscow attacked Ukraine with 140 drones overnight, wounding one person in Izmail district in Ukraine's Odesa region located on the Danube River and bordering Romania and Moldova.
Photographs shared by emergency services showed rescue teams extinguishing fires at the site of the attack, without specifying where.
Authorities often hide the right information for reasons of wartime security.
The southern region is the export hub of the Ukrainian Black Sea and its port facilities are often attacked by long-range attacks during the war launched by Russia in February 2022.
Moldovan President Maia Sandu said two Russian drones had violated Moldovan airspace and exploded in her area, "dangering the lives of Moldovans".
Russia does not respect the border, attacks civilians, spreads terror. Leave us, peaceful countries, alone," he wrote on X.
Mihai Pop'oi, Moldova's foreign minister, said his ministry would summon the Russian ambassador for the incident.
Two drones have most likely violated Romanian airspace, the country's defense ministry said.
It is possible that the location of the crash of the drone has been detected and it is conducting a search.
Of the 140 drones, the Ukrainian air force said it shot down 85 drones and 52 drones did not hit targets most likely caused by electronic precautions.
Russia has repeatedly denied targeting civilians or civilian infrastructure in Ukraine.
