Moldovan leadership condemns drone attack near border, blames Russia

Moldovan President Maia Sandu, Parliament President Igor Grosu, and PM Vasile Tofan condemned a drone attack near the Starokazacie border crossing in Ukraine, about 1 km from Moldova, on the night of Sept 8-9. They explicitly blamed Russia, citing its war spending of $25M per hour. This marks a rare unified high-level condemnation, highlighting Moldova's growing security concerns as spillover risks from the Ukraine war intensify.
