Teams of the Emmergency Situations Inspectorate, police, gendarme, army and border police units have conducted a series of searching operations in a district on the outskirts of the city of Galati, south-eastern Romania, after on Friday night a citizen called the emergency number 112 to report the sound of a big explosion in the area.

The residents last night received alert messages announcing the fall of dangerous objects from the sky advising them to take cover. The Defence Ministry on Friday night alerted the Air Policing Service after having detected a group of drones flying towards the Ukrainian territory close to the Romanian border and notified the General Inspectorate for Emmergency Situations to instate the alert measures for the population in the counties of Tulcea and Galati.

According to the Defence Ministry on the night of September 29th the Russian forces launched a new series of strikes against targets in Ukraine. The same sources say that the army radars detected a possible breach of the national airspace. No objects fallen from the sky have been identified yet. The ministry has been informing the allied structures on situations like these, keeping a permanent contact with them.
