The President of Moldova, Maia Sandu, strongly condemned the prolonged, 10-hour air attack by Russia on Ukraine that took place on the night of November 29. She emphasized that such actions have nothing to do with diplomacy and contradict statements about the desire to negotiate for peace.

Violation of Moldova’s Airspace
According to Sandu, during this attack, Russian drones once again crossed Moldova’s airspace, leading to its temporary closure. The President stressed her unwavering support for Ukraine and called these actions unacceptable.
“On the way to killing civilians, Russian drones once again violated Moldova’s airspace, resulting in its temporary closure. We condemn these attacks and support Ukraine.”
This is not the first instance of Russian drones violating Moldova’s airspace. A similar incident occurred during the attack on the night of November 25 this year.
Massive Shelling and Consequences for Ukraine
The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, reported that on the night of November 29, Russia launched about 36 missiles and nearly 600 drones at Ukraine. The main targets were energy infrastructure and civilian facilities. As a result of the shelling, three people were killed, dozens were injured, and large fires and damage occurred in residential buildings.
Russian military forces systematically carry out attacks on Ukrainian regions using various types of weapons, including strike drones, missiles, aerial bombs, and multiple launch rocket systems.
Despite the evident destruction of civilian infrastructure, the Russian leadership denies the intentionality of attacks on Ukrainian cities and villages and rejects responsibility for casualties among the civilian population and the destruction of hospitals, schools, kindergartens, and energy and water supply facilities.
The Ukrainian authorities and international organizations classify such strikes as war crimes of the Russian Federation and emphasize their deliberate nature.
A large-scale missile and drone attack by Russia was also recorded in Kyiv, as well as in the Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Poltava, and Kharkiv regions, resulting in new destruction and casualties among the civilian population.
