All four fighter aircraft touched down the airbase around 4:00.During this time interval, Romania's radar surveillance system indicated the possibility that one of the UAVs involved in the attack on Ukrainian targets may have crossed the national airspace, around 3:00 a.m., for a very short period of less than three minutes, in the border area with Ukraine.From the data available at this moment, the existence of an impact zone on the national territory has not been reported.
