Three employees of the General Inspectorate of Carabiners (IGC) will participate, as of October 20, 2026, till April 20, 2027, in the international peacekeeping mission in Kosovo, as part of the Multinational Peacekeeping Force (KFOR).

“Moldova is part of the free world and contributes, alongside its partners, to maintaining international peace and stability. By participating in this mission, our carabiners represent the country with professionalism and responsibility and carry forward the experience accumulated by previous contingents. Thank you for taking on this mission and for the way you represent Moldova,” said Daniella Misail-Nichitin.

A notable moment of the ceremony was the handover of Moldova’s State Flag, a symbol of national identity, honor and the commitment to serve the country with devotion.
