Lawmakers met in secret to vote on a new structure for the armed forces, while the Moldova Security Forum opened in the capital to discuss whether NATO can help protect the country's airspace. A visiting NATO official suggested the alliance could do more, though its deputy secretary general clarified it will not involve itself in the Transnistrian conflict. Security officials now believe Russia has lost its chance to influence the upcoming elections in Gagauzia, though the government is still debating whether to block Telegram to curb foreign interference. To prepare for other forms of instability, a new training initiative called Moldova Prepared will begin coaching citizens on how to handle civil crises. After 12 years of independent reporting, the news outlet Agora is abandoning its website to publish exclusively on social media. In Orhei, police are searching for a driver who fled the scene after a pedestrian was struck by two different cars in a fatal accident.
