The plane carrying Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to Oslo to attend the funeral of King Harald “almost got hit” by a drone as it was taking off from Moldova, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre revealed today. “His plane was almost struck by an unmanned aerial vehicle as it was preparing to take off from Moldova. That is the reality Zelensky lives with,” Støre told public broadcaster NRK.
