Romania’s military shot down a Russian marine drone near the critical Neptun Deep gas field in the Black Sea, sparking strong condemnation from President Nicușor Dan who called it an escalation of Russian aggression. The drone, spotted just hundreds of meters from the offshore platform set to make Romania Europe’s top gas producer by 2027, was intercepted by NATO-backed F-16s after Romanian Coast Guard alert. Officials confirmed no Ukrainian involvement and emphasized the mission’s goal: protecting workers and vital infrastructure. This incident follows a string of Russian drone incursions, including one that hit a building in May — underscoring Romania’s growing vigilance with NATO allies.
