Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Russia tried to attack his plane with drones twice in the last few weeks.
Zelenskyy told CBS News about the danger during a recent interview. He said that drones were sent to attack his aircraft while he was traveling.
This news comes after reports that a drone flew near a plane carrying Zelenskyy when he was visiting Moldova. Leaders from other countries, including the Prime Minister of Norway, have spoken about these safety threats.
Experts say these incidents show that Russia is using its drone technology in new ways to cause trouble in nearby countries like Moldova and Romania.
Zelenskyy’s team has not given many details about the exact location or time of the second attempt, but they confirmed that the president has been targeted more than once recently.
Security remains extremely tight for the Ukrainian leader as he continues to travel to meet with world leaders and ask for support in the ongoing war.
