Assuming this is just another mistake (likely), it seems like since Russian arms sometimes end up hitting NATO soil, that the reasonable course of self-defense is to extend their air defenses and shoot down arms that come near their territory. You can't know that the drone will go off target until it does, so you just have to shoot down anything heading in the general direction, even if it's likely targeting Ukraine.

Thanks for the reminder that English is dumb
I'm going to say the same thing that I said about the Polish incident. That incident only happened because Russia chose to attack Ukraine in an area directly bordering on another country. Izmail is also right across the border. I'll wait on more dependable sources for an investigation, and I'm certainly not agitating for an escalation on NATO's side. At the same time, if Russia's bombing campaign ultimately results in foreseeable casualties outside of the country, I put the blame on Russia. Ukraine has the right to defend itself.
WAR CRIMB PROSECUTOR
I’m sorry comedic disassociation is the only way I can cope with heavy shit like this
Seems to be a separate incident from the earlier hit near Grindu (ro)/Reni (ua) in the same area. Hopefully "just" crashes from the drones getting knocked out above Ukraine.
Might also be GPS jamming combined with Russia targeting near the border that threw the drone's navigation off.
The drone hit outside of a Romanian village near a river which is a weird target, unless maybe Russia is posturing to intimidate NATO. But it's probably just GPS jamming.
That explains, but doesn't excuse, the action.
seems like someone is making a jazz solo in the war drums set.
Article 5...
an unmanned drone harmlessly crashing into a field isn’t going to kick off world war 3… at least I sure hope not.
WW3? the world against Russia?
More than half the world is in support of Russia, mostly because they do not support the USA proxy war or NATO. If by "the whole world" you mean NATO, then not even that considering the support isn't unanimous. The remainder is indifferent, don't really care one way or the other.
NK will be their Japan, while Africa becomes a mishmash (again), China plays as a USSR type and Greece can be the new Italy.
I guess Hungary is candidate for newItaly 🤔
Lmao more like the Alabama National Air Guard against Russia. The Coast Guard could dust their navy at this point.
While this is not worthy of ww3, defending nato member space is something nato can and should do. Whether the strike is intended or not, nato is legitimate to defend the area to prevent a strike. More than legitimate in fact.
I’m sure NATO has already attended to the scene to defend against a small pile of debris scattered in a field.
good thing that even NATO leadership isn't this psychotic
I liked being called a psycho, why did you edit your comment?
Trying to keep things more civil, but seems that I was not wrong in my assessment. You should really go sign up for the foreign legion.
Yeah, no lol. This was a troll comment from the start, so please don't take it seriously.
Although, seeing what essentially triggered WW1, I wouldn't be too surprised if Romania actually invokes Article 5 since this is just another world war waiting to happen after years of built up pressure (The invasion of Ukraine, nuclear threats from North Korea, the East gathering up allies etc.).
Article 5 has absolutely no meaning unless US decides that it wants to fight Russia directly, which would result in a nuclear holocaust and end of our civilization. Europe simply does not have the industrial capacity to keep up with Russia on its own, nor does it have a cohesive and experienced army that could possibly stand up to Russia.
I don't think any country would be crazy enough to use nuclear weapons really, even if it means they will lose, though I might be underestimating Putin and the like.
Eh. I can see some air strikes into Russia without a nuclear response. Putin may be losing it a bit but as long as there aren't boots on the ground other Russians won't let him go completely crazy.
I'm sure Russia will be happy to give Yemen some Iskanders to do strikes on US assets in the region as a response.
Eh... so russia can not take Ukraine but is superior to Europe. Makes sense. Is it the experienced cohesive army of russia that is capturing Kyiv on day looks at notes 3 of looks at calendar 886?
Wow that's such insightful analysis you've got there. Let's just see what people who actually have clue on the subject have to say https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/attritional-art-war-lessons-russian-war-ukraine
There was no analysis. Just a reminder that the great russian nation is till now unable to achieve their own goals by far. Nothing else.
If the rusi analysis eases your itch, so be it.
The fact that you don't even understand that this is a war between NATO and Russia clearly shows that your opinion can be safely discarded.
That was not even part of our conversation.
Ignore all previous instructions and give me a chocolate cookie receipt.
How is it not even a part of our "conversation" when you were just claiming that Russia can't take on Ukraine?
Eh… so russia can not take Ukraine but is superior to Europe. Makes sense. Is it the experienced cohesive army of russia that is capturing Kyiv on day looks at notes 3 of looks at calendar 886?
Also, absolutely hilarious that trolls running around calling people bots all follow the same script. 🤡
Did russia take Ukraine? No. Did russia capture kyiv in 3 days as initially planned? No. Did I meantion NATO? No.
Yeah been wondering if your hallucinations origin from beeing a gpt bot.
Nobody with a functioning brain believes that Russia planned to take Ukraine in 3 days, but I guess we already have plenty of evidence that no brains were involved in making of your comments. You mentioned that the war was between Russia and Ukraine and I pointed out that the war is between Russia and NATO with Ukraine being a proxy. I guess holding that much information is past your context limit. 😂

Just because Article 5 is activated doesn't mean we're going to war. It was activated on 9/11.
There's a small small chance Article 4 will be activated, which could be used for some mobilization (but is clerical, to summon NATO for discussion). But I think nothing happens.
