Unknown unmanned boat found near Romania coast
Recently, an unknown drifting object, which is believed to be an unmanned boat, was found near the coast of Romania. This was reported by the Ministry of National Defense of the country.
It is noted that the overturned boat was spotted 35 km off the coast of the commune of Tuzla, near Constanta, by coast guard personnel.
The search and rescue ship «Artemis» brought the boat to the surface and transported it to the military range Capu Verde, where experts began to examine it.
«The vessel has been identified as a possible unmanned marine vehicle and is being examined by the ministry together with specialized structures of the national defense, public order, and national security system in accordance with specific operational procedures,» the statement said.
According to the Digi24 publication, citing its sources, a radio interference device and an explosive device were found on board.
Cyrillic markings were applied at certain nodes, indicating that the object may be a combat drone of Ukrainian or Russian origin. However, Bulgarians also use Cyrillic, so the circle of suspects is quite wide.
