Romania confirmed a Russian drone incursion into its airspace during a Ukrainian infrastructure attack. Two Romanian F-16s tracked the drone until it disappeared from radar. Poland also scrambled aircraft after Russian drone strikes near its border with Ukraine, later lifting a high alert but remaining vigilant. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy called for stronger sanctions and collective defense against Russia's expanding drone operations. US President Trump again suggested major sanctions on Russia, contingent on NATO allies' actions and halting Russian oil purchases. A Ukrainian drone attack on a major Russian oil refinery was also reported.
