Moldova’s president has convened an emergency meeting of her nation’s Supreme Security Council after a series of explosions rocked a region near Ukraine’s southern border that’s home to a pro-Russia separatist movement. Early this morning, twin explosions destroyed a Soviet-era radio tower that was used to broadcast Russian radio programs across Moldova. Elsewhere, unknown assailants fired grenades at a state security building in the provincial capital of Transnistria. The region in eastern Moldova is home to pro-Russia separatists, and Russian troops have been permanently based there since the collapse of the Soviet Union.
