The population of northern Tulcea county received a RO-ALERT message on Thursday night, regarding the possibility of objects falling from the airspace, against the background of the war unleashed by Russia in Ukraine.
The message was transmitted at around 1:30 and urged the population to remain calm and take shelter either in cellars or in civil defence shelters.
"In the absence of shelter, stay indoors, away from windows and exterior walls," the extreme alert message said.
The alert lasted 90 minutes.
According to Ministry of National Defence (MApN) protocols, RO-ALERT messages are transmitted by the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations (IGSU), after the state's surveillance systems signal the development of drones in Ukrainian airspace on a route approaching Romania.
MApN data shows that since September 5, 2023 to date, about 17 drone fragments have been found on Romanian territory, most of them in Tulcea county.
