Moldovan President Maia Sandu said on Thursday that Russian drones violated Moldova's airspace with two drones exploding on its soil.

"Shahed drones violated our airspace, two exploded on our soil, putting Moldovan lives at risk," Sandu wrote on X.

"Russia respects no borders, attacks civilians, spreads terror. Its war on Ukraine is criminal. Leave us, peaceful nations, alone," she added.
