At the Sculeni border crossing point, there is heavy traffic exiting the Republic of Moldova. The Customs Service announces that, in order to facilitate traffic flow, all control lanes have been opened and the reverse procedure is being applied, reports IPN.

The activity at the crossing point is operating at maximum capacity, and the authorities recommend travelers intending to leave the country to opt for the Costesti, Leova or Cahul crossing points, in order to avoid long waiting times.

A teenager died in an accident in Falesti. The motorcycle was driven by a minor without a license

by Iana Josu 17.07.2026

A 16-year-old teenager lost his life in a road accident that occurred on Thursday evening, in the village of Obreja Noua, Falesti district. The boy was a passenger on a motorcycle driven by a 17-year-old young man, who did not have a driving license, reports IPN.

According to the General Inspectorate of Police, preliminary investigations suggest that the teenager at the handlebars tried to overtake another vehicle at an intersection, without ensuring it was safe to do so. During the maneuver, the motorcycle collided with a car driven by a 44-year-old man, who was properly making a left turn.

Following the impact, both the motorcyclist and the passenger were urgently transported to Falesti District Hospital. Due to the injuries sustained, the 16-year-old teenager could not be saved.

The police have initiated a criminal process to determine all the circumstances under which the accident occurred.

Law enforcement officials remind parents not to allow minors to drive motorcycles or other vehicles without legal rights, warning that such decisions can have tragic consequences.
