Croatian officials have criticised Nato for what they said was its slow reaction to a military drone that apparently flew all the way from the Ukrainian war zone over several Nato member states, before crashing in an urban area of the Croatian capital.

The Russian-made aircraft crossed Romania and Hungary before entering Croatia and slamming into a field near a student dormitory in Zagreb late on Thursday.
