On September 28, Moldova‘s state-owned broadcaster reported that vandals had splashed paint on the entrance of its building in the capital city of Chisinau. This incident occurred just one day after police linked similar acts of vandalism to a group trained in Moscow with the intention of destabilizing the upcoming presidential election. Despite the attack, the deputy director general of Teleradio-Moldova, Andrei Zapsa, stated that they are not afraid and remain dedicated to serving society and citizens. Police also reported that the Supreme Court building was targeted with paint overnight. These incidents have been connected to a group trained in Moscow, believed to be attempting to provoke instability ahead of the election next month. The current pro-European president, Maia Sandu, is favored to win against 10 other challengers, including Alexander Stoianoglo, who is supported by pro-Russian opposition parties, and Renato Usatii, who advocates for good relations with both the West and Moscow. On September 27, two young men were detained in connection with similar incidents, where they splashed yellow paint (the color of Sandu’s ruling party) on two other government buildings. The suspects, aged 21 and 20, were apprehended near the parliament and admitted to receiving payment and training in Russia. They also confessed to recruiting other young individuals who were paid 500 euros a month to carry out the attacks. The situation has caused concern, with the Czech president stating that a full-scale Russian invasion could result in the temporary occupation of Ukrainian territory. Meanwhile, Ukrainian drones have been targeting Russian oil refineries, causing damage but not significantly impacting the country‘s economy. The 79th brigade of Ukraine has released a video showing their successful defense against a “massive” Russian attack near Kurakhove. As tensions continue to rise, the faith of Russians in their country’s safety has been shaken by Ukraine’s deep strikes.
