On 20 August 2026, a commercial vessel spotted a maritime drone drifting a few hundred metres from Romania's Neptun Deep gas platform in the Black Sea, about 80 nautical miles east of Constanța. Romania scrambled two F-16 fighter jets, and one destroyed the drone with its onboard cannon, the first time the Romanian Air Force has used cannon fire or engaged a maritime drone.

Defence Minister Radu Miruță said the drone was loaded with explosives and confirmed, through contact with Ukraine, that it was not Ukrainian, without stating its origin. President Nicușor Dan blamed Russia, condemning what he called an escalation of irresponsible incidents by the Russian Federation.

CIA Director Ratcliffe arrived in Moscow earlier today. The unannounced nature of the visit indicates the likelihood of it being related to possible mobilisation or plans to test NATO's resolve.

The trip was short with him already having already returned to Latvia.

Also note that the last time the CIA director made an unannounced trip to Moscow was in 2021 in the build up to Russias invasion of Ukraine.
