A reconnaissance drone was brought to shore near the locality of Primorsko, Bulgaria, and another similar aircraft was discovered on the beach in the Lozenets area.


According to the publication BIRD.BG, the drone found near Primorsko is of Russian manufacture, specifically an Orlan-10 model. This has raised questions about the reaction of the Bulgarian authorities, considering that a Ukrainian drone was recently intercepted in Bulgarian airspace. The Bulgarian army confirmed that the drone brought in by the waves is a reconnaissance aircraft and intervened to ensure the safety of tourists.


Additionally, fragments of another drone were discovered on the beach in Lozenets. The Ministry of Defense has not yet issued an official statement regarding these incidents. BIRD.BG also mentioned that a recent drone, described as Ukrainian, could actually be a Russian ZALA Z-20 model.


The discoveries raise important questions about the origin and purpose of these aircraft in the context of regional tensions.
