This work provides a retrospective of the events that led to the outbreak of the war on the Nistru, accompanied by photographs of the heroes who lost their lives in the battles to defend the independence and territorial integrity of the Republic of Moldova.
On March 2, 1992, the political conflict in the Nistru region escalated into a true fratricidal war. Under the fabricated pretext of "defending Russia's southern borders," political adventurers from the former Soviet metropolis encouraged Transnistrian separatism by arming secessionist paramilitary groups. At the same time, thousands of mercenary Cossacks and prisoners released early from jails, along with tanks and missiles, were sent against Independent Moldova, in a desperate attempt to revive the fallen empire.
Russia's undeclared war against the Republic of Moldova left behind hundreds of dead and wounded, shattered families, and villages in ruins. More than 50,000 peaceful residents from the conflict zone were forced to flee their homes, seeking refuge from the horrors of war.
For the sake of freedom and the future, Moldova's defenders faced death, enduring the hardships and humiliations of war.
During the Nistru war, 198 soldiers of the National Army and 89 personnel from the Ministry of Internal Affairs lost their lives, while 40 combatants went missing without a trace, and nearly 300 were left disabled.

The present article offers a history of construction of St. George’s church in Chișinău in 1814-1819 on the basis of archive sources and historiography. From the very beginning this church was connected with many Chișinău figures. The church was erected in the advanced style of the Moldovan medieval churches with the help of Stavrache Costin, a former archpriest of Orhei and the architect Ion Zaiciuc from Bucovina. The architectural constituents of the monument are analyzed on the basis of the planimetric reproduction and visual observations. According to the author, St. George’s church is one of the most important architectural achievements of the 19th century in Chisinau, which developed architectural tradition of the Moldovan principality after the annexation of Bessarabia by the tsarist Russia.
