Foreign Ministry condemns violation of national airspace by two cruise missiles

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) condemns the violation of the national airspace by two Banderol cruise missiles amid the massive attacks launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine. The institution emphasizes that this incident represents a serious violation of the sovereignty of the Republic of Moldova and a direct threat to the security and safety of citizens.

According to the MFA, such actions are unacceptable and contravene the fundamental principles of international law.

“The Republic of Moldova reaffirms its solidarity with Ukraine and calls on the Russian Federation to end its military aggression and actions that endanger regional peace and stability,” the institution said.

Two Banderol (S8000) cruise missiles entered the airspace of the Republic of Moldova on the morning of November 11, amid Russian attacks on Ukraine. Both missiles crossed the national airspace from the direction of Odesa region and subsequently returned to Ukrainian territory.

Since the beginning of 2026, approximately 70 incidents involving violations of the airspace of the Republic of Moldova have been recorded. Since 2022, the total number of recorded incidents has reached around 110.
