More than 6,700 inhabitants will benefit from more safety with the inauguration of the Volunteer Rescue and Firefighter Station in Scoreni, Străseni district

A new initiative aimed at increasing the safety of residents in rural areas was carried out with the inauguration of a territorial volunteer fire station in the town of Scoreni, Strășeni district. 
in this sense, today, December 5, 2025, the official opening of the new post took place, aimed at reducing the reaction time and strengthening the capabilities of intervention in emergency situations. 
The event was attended by the Minister of Internal Affairs, Mrs. Daniella Misail-Nichitin, the leadership of the General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations, represented by Colonel Aurel Baciu, the president of the Străseni district, Mrs. Mariana Dîmcenco, the mayor of Scoreni, Mrs. Svetlana Tabacari, as well as the development partners from Solidarity Fund PL in Moldova. 
The draw was built from the ground up, thanks to the financial assistance of the European Union and the Solidarity Fund PL Foundation, but also the contribution of the local public authorities and the Strășeni District Council within the implementation of the pilot project "Consolidation of the civil protection system in the Republic of Moldova". 
The building of the community post has all the conditions according to European standards, being equipped with a study room, kitchen, rest room, bathroom and the necessary furniture. 
The total cost of the investment for building the edifice and improving the conditions was 539,884 lei, of which 101,284 lei were allocated by Scoreni City Hall, and 438,600 lei represent the contribution of the Solidarity Fund PL in Moldova, both for the construction and for the provision of furniture, equipment, equipment and clothing. 
Also, the Scoreni City Hall allocated 383 thousand lei for the construction of a special box to store the 4X4 emergency vehicle, received as a donation from a Polish city hall. 
within the post, 10 volunteer firefighters will be active, ready to intervene promptly in case of fires or other exceptional situations, acting as the first line of response until the arrival of professional crews. The volunteers attended a specialized course organized by IGSU trainers, where they acquired practical skills in extinguishing fires, providing first aid and rescuing people following road accidents. 
The new rescue and volunteer fire station will serve four localities in the Străseni and Ialoveni districts, including Scoreni, Nimoreni, Malcoci and Condrița. 
Each of these localities is characterized by a different land specificity. Thus, Scoreni is located in a wooded area, Nimoreni on a plateau with orchards, Malcoci includes agricultural land, and Condrița includes forest land and protected areas. This diversity highlights the need for a post of volunteer rescuers and firefighters able to intervene effectively in emergency situations, regardless of local conditions. 
By making the station operational, 6,753 citizens will benefit from increased safety and faster interventions in case of fires or other exceptional situations. 
According to an analysis carried out by the IGSU, in the period 2022-2025, 88 interventions were recorded, distributed as follows: Scoreni – 42, Nimoreni – 27, Malcoci – 13 and Condrița – 6. The most frequent interventions were vegetation fires, followed by housing fires and garbage fires. 
The Scoreni rescue and firemen post is the 23rd active post based on volunteering. 
currently, in the Republic of Moldova, there are 82 territorial posts of rescuers and firefighters, which significantly contribute to strengthening the capacities of primary intervention in risk situations, increasing the level of civil protection at the local and national level.
