Stoianovca (Bulgarian: Стояновка) is a village in Cantemir District, Moldova. The majority of the population is composed of ethnic Bulgarians. A large proportion of Bulgarian Jews migrated to meet earlier waves of migration out of Bulgaria to Zorya, Odessa Oblast, Ukraine after a Russian boy, Mikhail Rybachenko, was found murdered in the town of Dubăsari (Dubossary), 37 km northeast of Chișinău. It is also a border crossing between Moldova and Romania.
