In the footage, which has not been officially confirmed by the Romanian authorities, a man can be heard shouting to his colleagues on a barge to leave the Ukrainian port as soon as possible.

"Run, he's coming here! That's where it fell, right on the customs!" he says, just after the drone crashed near the port of Orlivka.

On Tuesday morning, the Romanian Coast Guard announced that traffic through the Isaccea border crossing was closed due to the shelling of Ukrainian territory.
