Traffic on the Râbnița-Rezina bridge was halted by police this afternoon, reports IPN.

“A person within the crowd is not cooperating with police and is holding a suspicious box, refusing to disclose its contents,” stated the General Police Inspectorate (IGP).

The perimeter is secured, and specialized IGP units are documenting the case and assessing the circumstances. Once the case is documented according to protocols and the threat to citizens' safety is eliminated, traffic in the area will resume, announced the IGP.

Earlier in the day, there was an extremely high volume of vehicles on the bridge over the Dniester, which connects the cities of Rîbnița and Rezina. According to the Central Electoral Commission, Rezina is among the districts with the highest voter turnout, exceeding 34%.
