Earlier, Moldovan Energy Minister Victor Parlikov said that Russian missile attacks on the energy infrastructure of Odesa region also affected the Transnistrian region.

The remains of Russian drones have also been repeatedly found on the territory of Moldova. For example, Moldovan Foreign Minister Mihai Popschiu condemned the violation of Moldovan airspace by two Russian drones on Sunday, November 10.

In the evening of November 10, the second drone in 24 hours was found in northern Moldova after a massive Russian drone attack against Ukraine.

On the morning of November 10, the General Inspectorate of the Moldovan Police reported the discovery of an unknown drone that had crashed near the village of Firledeni, Kaushan district, near the border with Odesa region. Later, they added that a second drone was found in a field near the village of Boroseni Noi in the Rishkan district of Moldova. After the initial examination of the first drone, it was found that it was a Russian-made Shahed drone with no explosives on it.

Drones also fly into Romania. During a massive attack by Russians in Odesa region on the night of September 27, one Russian army drone entered Romanian airspace. Before that, on the evening of September 7, a group of Russian Shahed attack drones violated Romanian airspace, which led to warnings to residents of Tulcea and Constanta counties about the risk of objects falling from the airspace. According to the Romanian publication hotnews.ro, representatives of the Tulcea Emergency Situations Inspectorate explained that these messages were necessary to inform the population of the Romanian border area.
