18 марта 2024

A kamikaze drone destroyed a Mi-8MT helicopter in Transnistria. The gunship stood in the territory of the military unit of the local forces, nearby there are Russian peacekeepers. The fire was promptly extinguished, there were no casualties. At the same time, the Moldovan authorities deny their guilt. This event in Transnistria is not the first one. In April 2022, Kiev threatened to take control of the territory if asked to do so. A few days after the statements, Transnistrian servicemen intercepted a Ukrainian drone carrying explosives.
