Norway's prime minister said a drone almost hit Volodymyr Zelenskyy's plane as it took off from Moldova on Tuesday. The episode surfaced as Moldova reported Russian drone incursions near Chisinau Airport.

A drone nearly struck a plane carrying Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy from Moldova to Oslo, according to Norway's prime minister. However, a Ukrainian source said the threat may have been overstated.

Moldova briefly closed its airspace after a drone incursion delayed flights, including Volodymyr Zelenskyy's. The incident underscored the regional spillover risk from Russia's war as investigators examined suspected Geran-type fragments.
