Moldova’s pro-Russian breakaway region of Transnistria suffered a series of explosions on Tuesday in which two radio masts in the village of Maiac, Grigoriopol, were damaged, a day after the ministry of state security in the city of Tiraspol was shelled.
No one was harmed in the blasts but the latest incidents, targeting Soviet-era anntennae that carry influential Russian broadcasts, prompted Moldova to place its terror threat level on red alert following a meeting of its Security Council.
