"On July 5, Moldovan authorities were alerted via email that more than 50 state
institutions had been mined that day.

It was the start of a summer of bomb threats.

Since then, more than 100 similar warnings have been sent to landmarks,
including the Chisinau International Airport, parliament and government
buildings, the Supreme Court, commercial centres, hospitals and churches around
the country.

All were false alarms.

“Obviously, we don’t feel safe here. We’re always worried and thinking about
what could happen,” said 68-year-old Vera from Moldova’s capital, Chisinau.

The pensioner believes the threats are almost certainly a result of the Ukraine
war, which has thrust Moldova, a landlocked nation bordering Ukraine and
Romania, into an even more difficult position than usual."
