A Russian drone attack killed two civilians at Ukraine’s Starokazacie crossing with Moldova overnight on 8–9 September, according to officials cited by Reuters. Odesa’s governor reported three wounded. [1]
Moldovan Border Police confirmed damage on Ukrainian territory and a suspension of crossing operations. Their initial statement reported two wounded, a lower count than the governor’s subsequent figure, and said no drone fragments had been found on the Moldovan side. [2] [1]
Noi.md reported at 14:42 local time on 9 September that normal traffic had resumed. The attack therefore caused a temporary interruption; the initial closure should not be treated as the latest operating status. [3]
