After Russian shelling of Ukraine on Saturday afternoon, border patrols at the Larga checkpoint found remnants of a rocket near the border, the Moldovan Interior Ministry said. In turn, in the city of Dnieper, Ukraine, a Russian rocket hit a barricade, completely destroying it. 10 people died and 64 were injured. The number of victims continues to rise.
As reported in the report, in connection with the shelling of Ukraine, a contingency plan was implemented and the number of patrols along the border with Ukraine was increased. Airspace and green border are also under surveillance.
Emergency services were called to the scene after shell fragments were found. The prosecutor’s office is also investigating.
The Ministry reminds that since the beginning of the war, this is the third time that missile debris from the bombing of Ukraine has fallen on the territory of Moldova.
The last such case happened in early December. At that time, the remains of the projectile reportedly fell in the orchard. Services took care of that.
