Bulgarian officials clarify drone crash involved aircraft type used by Ukraine

Bulgarian defense officials have provided further details regarding a drone that crashed on the country's territory on Saturday, confirming the aircraft matches a type "widely used by Ukrainian armed forces."

Despite identifying the model, the Ministry of Defence clarified that current evidence points away from any deliberate targeting of Bulgarian soil. Experts continue to examine the wreckage to determine whether the crash resulted from mechanical malfunctions, operator error, or electronic warfare interference.

The crash caused no injuries or property damage. Officials in Sofia confirmed that technical assessments regarding the drone's flight path remain ongoing and that NATO allies are being kept informed as the investigation continues.
