The work In Memoriam. In Memory of the Heroes Who Fell at the Nistru (1992) was developed within the Center for Culture and Military History and published under the auspices of the Government of the Republic of Moldova, the Bureau for Reintegration, and the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Moldova. Authors: Gheorghe Bălan, Vitalie Ciobanu, Gheorghe Cojocaru.
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 National Theater „Vasile Alecsandri” from Bălți: historical retrospective
Tyragetia, serie nouă, vol. IV [XIX], nr. 2, Istorie. Muzeologie
The National Theater V. Alecsandri from Bălți has a rich history of particular theater events. In the 50 years of its activity, on the scene from Bălți have been mounted around 200 performances – national and universal, classical and modern dramatic art shows. The theater has been a true forgery of artistic talents. In this environment were launched and further developed big personalities of the stage - Mihai Volontir, Iulian Codău, Victor Ciutac, Grigore Grigoriu, who make the pride of the Bessarabian theater and which contributed to the development of the theatrical art in Moldova.
We can trace two tendencies in the activity program of the National Theater V. Alecsandri from Bălți: the theater contributed to the cultural continuity on the territory between Prut and Dniester, to the valorization of the dramatic heritage of writer V. Alecsandri. Second, the theater was tributary to its time and political regimes, participating to the Sovietisation and Russification process.
