Moldova's Ministry of Defense reported that three Russian missiles and two drones had struck the country

During Russia’s massive attack on Ukraine on the morning of October 3, five aerial targets exploded over Moldovan territory. Based on an analysis of the data, they were identified as three missiles and two drones.

“In connection with the Russian Federation’s massive attacks on Ukraine this morning, the National Army’s Air Operations Service reports that, based on an analysis of data on flights over national airspace, in addition to the five aircraft — three missiles and two drones that exploded on the ground—another unauthorized flight was detected,” the statement reads.

According to the Moldovan Ministry of Defense, another unauthorized object crossed the country’s airspace at 8:04 a.m.

It entered Moldovan airspace from the direction of the town of Udobne in Ukraine’s Odesa Oblast and was heading toward Palanka.

By 08:05, the object had left Moldova’s airspace and was heading toward Bilyayivka in the Odesa region.

Thus, the object remained in Moldova’s airspace for about one minute.

The Moldovan Ministry of Defense continues to analyze the data received regarding the air situation during Russia’s massive attack on Ukraine.

This was reported by the Moldovan Ministry of Defense.

On the morning of October 3, five drones crossed into Moldovan airspace. The incidents occurred amid a massive Russian attack on Ukraine.

Over the past 24 hours, Russian occupation forces carried out a massive attack on Mykolaiv, using an “Iskander-M” ballistic missile and Shahed-type strike drones. As a result of the shelling, three civilian men were injured, and damage to port and urban infrastructure was also reported.

On the night of October 3, Russian occupiers struck Hostomel in the Kyiv region. Four people were injured in the shelling, including a child.

On the night of October 3, Russian forces attacked Ukraine with 157 attack drones. The enemy launched drones from four directions, and the weapons used included Shahed-type strike UAVs, “Gerbera” drones, and “Parody” decoy drones.

Over the past 24 hours, Russian occupation forces carried out 737 strikes on 55 settlements in the Zaporizhzhia region. Two people were wounded as a result of the enemy attacks.

On the evening of October 2, Russian troops attacked Dnipro again. A fire broke out in the city, and debris from the strike fell on the parking lot of the Dnipro City Council. Information about possible casualties is currently being verified.

On the morning of October 3, Russian forces struck the Northern Bridge in Kyiv. Prior to this, a series of explosions rang out in the capital amid an air raid alert and the threat of an attack by strike drones.

Prior to this, the Russian Federation—the aggressor state—had attacked a bridge in Kyiv, Ukraine, for the second day in a row. An evening drone strike on the closed South Bridge marked yet another attack on the capital’s infrastructure.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Russia—the aggressor state—may intensify its attacks on Ukraine ahead of the U.S. midterm elections scheduled for November 3. He made these remarks in an interview with the Spanish newspaper El País.
