E-mailBUCHAREST, Feb 26 (Reuters) - Romania scrambled fighter jets on Thursday when a drone breached its national airspace during a Russian attack on Ukrainian infrastructure near the border, the defence ministry said, the second airspace breach in as many days.
The European Union and NATO member shares a 650km (400 miles) land border with Ukraine and has had drones breach its airspace and fragments fall on its territory repeatedly since Russia began attacking Kyiv's ports across the Danube.
