The Ukrainian and Moldovan sides accuse Russia of provocation on a military base in Tiraspol. Meanwhile, the "Ministry of State Security" of Transnistria allegedly saw a flight of UAV on the part of the clover bridge near Odessa. Ukrainian military and special services are not involved in the attack by the drone in the military unit in Transnistria. This was stated by the Moldova Reintegration Bureau.

Military equipment has not been working in the pictures for several years," the department says.

The Moldovan Radio Liberty service noted that the incident occurred on the day when the residents of Transnistria voted in the election of Russian President at six polling stations opened on the left bank of the Dniester. The so -called Transnistria State Security Ministry reported that the UAV flight was recorded by the clover bridge located at the intersection of the Kiev highway and bypass near Odessa.

The Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine called the situation on one of the military units in Tiraspol in Russian provocation. The Center for Combating Misinformation under the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine also stated the provocation of the Russian Federation in Transnistria.

"The main logic of the Kremlin's actions is the information injection of the situation, since in Russia there is no corridor to Transnistria for provoking a military nature. It is for information injection that the Russians try to provoke and manipulate in the information space, spreading fakes," the center said. Dron-Kamikadze destroyed the Mi-8MT helicopter, which stood in the territory of the military unit of the local forces, next to Russian peacekeepers.

"The drone hit on the turntable this day, at 12:10. There was an explosion, then the fire. The fire has already been liquidated," the media said. According to the Ukrainian military observer, Alexander Kovalenko, the helicopter Mi-8 burned in Transnistria was one of the few working-class in the illegal armed forces of PMR. "I do not know what has arrived there and who stands behind it.

First, in Tiraspol, the heel points were compressed today to the size of the needle ear, and secondly-the capable air component in them became less, which can not be pleased", "," - notes the analyst. Recall that France and Moldova have signed a cooperation agreement in the field of security because of threats from Russia. The agreement provides for a quick opening in Chisinau French Defense Mission.
