'''Pohrebea''' or '''Pogrebea''' is a village near [[Dubăsari]] on the border between [[Moldova]] and [[Transnistria]], part of which is located in a [[buffer zone]] overseen by the three-nation [[Joint Control Commission]]. During the [[1992]] [[War of Transnistria]] it was the center of some of the heaviest fighting. As a legacy of that war, Pogrebea today hosts one of the largest areas of unremoved [[landmines]] in the region.[http://maic.jmu.edu/journal/4.1/moldova.htm]

In [[Romanian language]], ''Pogrebă'' means "a basement", and ''-ea'' is a specific ending in Romanian; the addition of which means that Pogrebea signifies "'''the''' basement".
