An object resembling a drone was recently discovered in a wooded area near the village of Gordinești, Rezina district, Republic of Moldova, and police officers and technical-explosive experts are verifying its nature and origin. The authorities have not yet determined whether the object is a drone or whether it poses any danger.

The report was made shortly after the discovery. Employees of the Technical-Explosive Section intervened at the scene, examining the object and seeking to establish where it came from and under what circumstances it arrived in the area.

The police recommend that citizens not approach suspicious objects or any possible fragments and not touch them. The area should be avoided until the checks are completed, in order to prevent incidents.

The discovery comes amid the violation of the airspace of the Republic of Moldova 19 times in October, against the backdrop of Russian attacks on Ukraine. In six cases, the drones exploded upon impact with the ground in the districts of Căușeni, Ștefan Vodă, Anenii Noi, Hâncești, and Dondușeni.

The Ministry of Defense announces that, since the beginning of 2026, 67 incidents have been recorded, while from 2022 to the present the total number has reached 104. Citizens are urged to immediately call 112 if they observe drones or fragments of them.

Context: before the discovery of the object in Rezina, other incidents involving drones and fragments had also been reported in Moldova

Before the report from Rezina District, Moldovan authorities had intervened in several cases involving unmanned aerial vehicles: border police secured the area after fragments were discovered near Volintiri (Ștefan Vodă District), while explosions and drone debris were reported in other localities, with no casualties, including near Căușeni, Ștefan Vodă, Hîncești, and Anenii Noi.

At the same time, there were also alerts without ground confirmation of fragments: in the districts of Orhei and Călărași, police checked possible sightings of drones and a bright light followed by an explosion, but found no traces confirming that an object had fallen. In another incident, on Thursday morning, a flying object that had fallen near the Chișinău–Basarabeasca route was isolated for examination, and, for citizens’ safety, people were urged not to approach it and to call 112.
