As a result of the evolution of the aerial target on a route towards the Romanian state border, in order to monitor the situation, two F-18 aircraft of the Spanish Air Force and two F-16 aircraft of the Romanian Air Force were scrambled successively. The radar signal indicated the crossing of Romania's land border around 7:00 p.m., in the area of the Eforie Nord locality, later going in the direction of Topraisar", the MApN informed in a release.The MApN mentioned that the air surveillance radars continuously followed the target's route which penetrated into the national territory for a maximum distance of 14 km.The fighter aircraft did not have visual contact with it at any point on its path.The surveillance system lost the radar signal east of the town of Amzacea, around 7:20 p.m., the quoted source said.The termination of the air alert was transmitted at 8:15 p.m., and the combat aircraft returned to their bases."From the data available at this moment, the probability of the existence of an impact zone on the national territory was not indicated.

The MApN informed the allied structures in real time about this situation, staying in permanent contact with them", the quoted press release emphasizes.
