MOLDOVA

Chișinău has accused Russian propaganda of spreading fake news about a general mobilization soon to be ordered in the Republic of Moldova. Moldova’s Defense Minister stated in a press release that mobilization can only be ordered in states of emergency or war, none of which apply to present-day Moldova. Defense officials have also urged the population to consult only reliable sources following the circulation of this rumor over a telecom network.
