russia has launched a kamikaze drone attack on a military unit in unrecognized Transnistria to destabilize the region.

The representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, Andriy Yusov, said that the attack of a kamikaze drone on a military unit near Tiraspol in the unrecognized Transnistrian region is a russian provocation. Yusov said this during a telethon, UNN reports.

Details

We can state and confirm the official published position: this is a russian provocation. How and in what way it was implemented will be clarified later, and we will communicate separately on this issue. There is indeed a statement from Moldova and Ukraine. In the end, unrecognized Transnistria does not need this incident either. The only interested party in this story is the aggressor state of russia, which wants to destabilize the situation in this region to some extent

- Yusov said.

Addendum

Yesterday, the security agency of the "Transnistrian Moldovan Republic" reported that a kamikaze drone attacked a military unit near Tiraspol.

At the same time, Moldova's Bureau of Reintegration Policy stated that Ukraine was not involved in the drone attack on a military unit in the unrecognized republic of Transnistria.

The Bureau of Reintegration Policy has contacted other state authorities of the Republic of Moldova, and after studying the video images and exchanging information, we report that this incident is an attempt to provoke fear and panic in the region. The military equipment in the images has been out of service for several years. Chisinau authorities in contact with the Ukrainian side do not confirm any attacks on the Transnistrian region

- the bureau said.
