Dramatic qualification for Zimbru

Zimbru Chisinau qualified dramatically for the second round of the UEFA Europa League. The team trained by Flavius Stoican defeated away the Georgian team Chikhura 3-2, IPN reports.

The Turkish team Osmanlispor, which includes Romania’s Raul Rusescu and Gabriel Torje, is Zimbru’s next opponent. The first-leg match is played in Chisinau on July 14, while the return game on July 21.


The Hydrometeorological Service in the Transnistrian region has established a yellow and orange hydrological danger code on the Dniester, valid from July 29 to August 7, due to the decrease in water level. According to the administration in Tiraspol, the orange code indicates “an increased risk of producing effects with significant impact”, reports the IPN correspondent from the Transnistrian region.

The decision comes after Chisinau extended until July 31 the hydrological warning regarding the reduced flow of the Nistru and other rivers. The yellow code is in effect in the Naslavcea-Dubasari sector, while between Dubasari and Tudora the orange code is maintained, where the water flow represents only 25-30% of the multiannual average.

In the context of the low level of the Nistru, the Government of the Republic of Moldova has instituted a hydrological alert for 30 days. The measure allows for quick interventions to manage water consumption and protect supply sources, so that drinking water for the population, medical institutions, and social ones remains a priority.

According to the Ministry of Environment, the reduction in the flow of the Nistru is caused by the lack of precipitation and unfavorable hydrometeorological conditions, with the risk of affecting the water intake structures and the water supply in the localities dependent on the river.
