Hungary bans Ukrainian drone chief from entry after attack

Aug 29, 2025

Budapest [Hungary], August 29: Hungary has imposed a three-year entry ban on Robert Brovdi, the head of Ukraine's drone forces, after a drone attack on a Russian oil pipeline to Hungary.
"The recent heavy airstrike on the Druzhba oil pipeline was an attack on Hungary's sovereignty," Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in a statement.
The Ukrainian military said it attacked the Nikolskoye pumping station in Russia's central Tambov region a week and a half ago, causing considerable damage to the facility.
Unlike other EU countries, Hungary and Slovakia have not broken their dependence on Russia for oil and gas imports and still receive oil through the Druzhba pipeline. The sanctions imposed by the European Union against Moscow do not extend to natural gas or oil transported via pipelines.
