A Gheran-2 (Shahed 136) drone exploded on the night of July 13 in the area of the village of Copanca, Căușeni district, after allegedly flying through the airspace of the Republic of Moldova in the context of air attacks launched by the Russian Federation on Ukraine’s Odesa region.
According to the Air Operations Service of the National Army, the object was detected at 01:03. Preliminary, the authorities determined that it was a Gheran-2 (Shahed 136) drone, which entered the airspace of the Republic of Moldova before exploding near the locality of Copanca.
Specialist teams from the competent structures are intervening on site and are conducting investigations to establish all the circumstances of the incident.
