Russian missile hits Moldova's territory during massive attack on Ukraine: rescuers assess damage 

The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Moldova reported this on Facebook.

The authorities noted that there is no risk for citizens, as the place where the incident took place is guarded by the border patrol officers along the perimeter.

Border guards discovered the rocket near the town of Briceni in a garden around 3:15 p.m. It was found when, during the new massive Russian missile attack on Ukraine, the Moldovan border guard servicemen were patrolling the territory. The area where the rocket fell is surrounded.  

The emergency service’s rescuers are working at the site where the rocket’s fragments fell, assessing the damage and communicating with local authorities and residents about the incident.

Explosive technicians determine whether the object discovered by border guards is a component of a rocket and whether it contains explosive elements. According to the plan of action in emergency situations, the border police increased patrolling and raised the level of danger in the area of Briceni and the neighboring town of Ocnița.
