Kiper also noted that two individuals were hospitalized with moderate injuries, while another received medical assistance on-site. Law enforcement officials are present at the scene documenting the aftermath.

Unconfirmed reports on social media suggest debris from a drone may have landed in Romania, near the town of Plauru. Additionally, online users allege an unmanned UAV of the Shahed Geran-type strayed into Romanian airspace before detonating. These claims have not been substantiated and remain under investigation.
