"Six attacks in 10 days by suspected Russian drones marks a dangerous and unacceptable escalation in the Black Sea," EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas told the European Parliament.
The string of attacks on civilian vessels off the coasts of EU and Nato members Romania and Bulgaria in recent weeks have stirred condemnation and concern in Europe.
