Background:

In January, unrecognised Transnistria claimed that "special strike teams" were allegedly being prepared in Moldova for murders and sabotage operations in the Transnistrian territories.

The Transnistrian authorities provided no proof or at least some evidence for these claims.
Transnistria, where Russian troops have been illegally present for over 30 years, violating the sovereignty of Moldova, is the source of regional tensions.
In 2022, local "authorities" similarly reported about the series of explosions at the facilities, which led to speculations about possible preparation for the invasion by the Russian forces from the Transnistrian territory.
Recently, the Transnistrian "Ministry of State Security" also spread rumours about "the incident with the use of firearms", which was refuted by both Kyiv and Kishinev.
