It was probably a "Shahed" jet.

On the evening of August 10, during another Russian airstrike on the Odesa region, a Russian UAV violated Moldovan airspace and subsequently returned to Ukraine, according to stated by the Moldovan Ministry of Defense.

According to the Moldovan Army’s Air Operations Service, at 11:41 p.m., radars detected an object moving from the direction of Stepanivka, Ukraine, which entered Moldovan airspace, flying over the village of Priozernoye in the Slobodzhiy District.

A minute later, the aircraft exited Moldovan airspace and returned to Ukraine north of Stepanivka.

It is noted that the aircraft’s characteristics resemble those of the “Geran-3,” that is, a jet-powered “Shahed.”

At approximately the same time, reports from the Ukrainian Air Force regarding aerial threats mentioned the movement of a jet-powered UAV in the Odesa region near villages close to the border with Moldova.

As a reminder, on Monday it was announced that the UAV that exploded in Moldova on Sunday, August 9, was a new type of aircraft that had not previously been spotted in the country.
