The military drone crashed at around 11 p.m. local time (2200 GMT) Thursday night, causing no deaths or injuries.

"We estimate that it was not directed against Croatia and that it was an incident that fortunately did not cause any casualties," Croatian President Zoran Milanovic said.

The Croatian government said on Friday that the drone had entered Croatian air space from Hungary.

On the ground it caused a large crater and two parachutes were found in a wooded area. Some cars at the scene were damaged. The police have cordoned off the area and are conducting an investigation. ■
