NATO member Romania scrambled two fighter jets overnight after Russia launched fresh drone attacks close to its border with Ukraine, the country’s defense ministry said on Wednesday.

Two F-16 fighter jets took off from a major airbase east of the Romanian capital at 11:15 p.m. local time after Moscow “resumed its drone attacks on civilian targets and port infrastructure in Ukraine,” Bucharest said in a statement.

Russia has frequently attacked the Ukrainian port of Izmail, which sits directly across from the Romanian town and broader region of Tulcea. The Danube River marks the border between the two countries.
