The General Inspectorate for Emergencies in Romania issued a warning via the RO-ALERT system for the northern area of Tulcea County overnight, amid the ongoing war in Ukraine, according to Agerpres.
Residents in the affected region were advised to take protective measures due to the risk of falling objects during an air attack that lasted approximately 90 minutes.
A spokesperson for the General Inspectorate for Emergencies confirmed to Agerpres that no emergency calls were received on the 112 hotline during the incident.
