Bulgaria identifies downed drone as model widely used by Ukrainian forces

Bulgaria's Ministry of Defence has stated that the unmanned aerial vehicle that recently crashed in the country's northeast corresponds to a model "largely used by Ukrainian armed forces."

Defence authorities reiterated that preliminary investigations show no evidence suggesting an intentional attack directed against Bulgarian infrastructure or sovereign territory. The drone caused no casualties or property damage upon impact, as it failed to detonate.

Military experts are continuing their technical examination of the recovered debris to determine the aircraft's point of origin, intended trajectory, and exact reason for the crash. Bulgarian security services remain on heightened alert, coordinating closely with regional NATO partners while monitoring national airspace.
