A fire on a gas tanker carrying liquefied petroleum gas (GPL) that was struck by a drone in the port of Ismail, Romania, has been extinguished. Residents of Ceatalchioi, who were evacuated, have been allowed to return to their homes. However, the fire on the GPL tanker on the Ukrainian side of the Danube continues to burn, keeping the city of Tulcea on high alert. The Romanian military has relocated its equipment due to the potential danger posed by the burning GPL tanker. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian authorities have stated that there is no danger, only a temporary interruption in water supply. The fire on the GPL tanker, which was hit by a Russian drone, has led to the evacuation of residents from the nearby town of Plauru, while those from Ceatalchioi have been allowed to return home. A large-capacity vessel has been brought to the scene to assist in the operation.

Raed Arafat, a Romanian official, warns that a potential explosion of a ship carrying liquefied petroleum gas (GPL) near Ukraine could have a radius of 4 to 5 kilometers. Citizens from two villages in the Danube Delta, Plauru and Ceatalchioi in Tulcea, have been evacuated due to this risk. Arafat also stated that a ship carrying 4,400 tons of GPL was hit by a Russian drone, posing a major risk of explosion. The impact of such an explosion could be as severe as 4.5 to 5 kilometers. The incident has led to the evacuation of several local communities, including Ceatalchioi, and the closure of traffic in the area. Authorities have issued a RO-Alert, warning of a major explosion risk in the vicinity of Plauru. The potential disaster is compared to the power of three atomic bombs like the one dropped on Hiroshima.
