Russia attacks Ukrainian NATO checkpoint

A Russian drone strike has hit a Ukrainian border crossing with NATO member Romania, according to reports.

The Orlivka-Isaccea checkpoint connecting Ukraine's Odesa region with Romania was suspended on Wednesday morning, Ukraine's State Border Guard Service said.

Ukrainian customs wrote on Telegram that services at the checkpoint had been halted until 11 a.m. local time Wednesday following "a night attack of the enemy."

The Russian attack also struck port infrastructure in the Izmail district of the Odesa region, injuring two lorry drivers.

Last month, independent Russian outlet Verstka reported that debris from missiles and drones fired by Russia had landed in NATO countries 20 times since the start of the full-scale invasion.
