A Shahed drone flew over the locality of Tudora on April 3 after it illegally entered the airspace of the Republic of Moldova, according to the Air Operations Service of the National Army.

The Air Operations Service detected the drone at 08:13 as it entered Moldovan territory from the direction of Biliaivka. Its trajectory passed directly above Tudora before it exited national airspace at 08:15, crossing the border toward Krutoiarivka.

The incursion lasted two minutes. The drone flew at an altitude of 3,000 meters and a speed of 167 km/h.

The National Army stated that surveillance systems continuously monitor the airspace and that the institution cooperates with national authorities and experts from neighboring countries to ensure citizens’ safety.

Earlier this week, two other drones also violated Moldova’s airspace—one on Monday evening and another on Tuesday morning.
