BUCHAREST, May 31 (Xinhua) -- A specialized team from Romania's Ministry of National Defense said on Sunday the drone that crashed and injured two Romanians was made in Russia, according to a press release by the ministry.
It said that following the incident in Galati County on Friday, a technical investigation concluded that the type of the object was an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) and the model was GERAN-2, Russian-made, the press release said.
Romanian President Nicusor Dan wrote on Facebook on Sunday that the drone was "of Russian origin".
"This is the undoubted conclusion of the technical report finalized by the Romanian state specialists. The investigation established this based on a consistent set of technical evidence," he wrote.
Romania's Ministry of National Defense said on Friday that a Russian drone entered Romanian airspace and crashed into a residential apartment building in Galati County, sparking a fire and injuring two people.
However, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said on the same day that accusations against Russia over drones allegedly detected in European Union countries were unfounded and unsupported by evidence.
