An unidentified drone struck the Palau-flagged cargo ship Larissa 1 inside Romanian territorial waters overnight into 14 November 2026 while it was bound for Ukraine. Digi24 reported that the strike damaged the ship's cargo crane without causing injuries or a fire, and Romanian Defense Minister Ștefan-Radu Oprea announced an investigation involving the military, Naval Forces, Coast Guard and Interior Ministry. Romanian Prime Minister Luca Niculescu separately condemned a Saturday evening drone attack that struck three commercial vessels near the Danube Delta off Sulina, calling it an unacceptable violation of international law caused by Russia's war against Ukraine. Romanian Air Force jets scrambled twice after defence radars detected aerial targets in the area.
