General assembly in Costuleni on Sunday at 16.00, on the single commune. Cioropcani asks its residents online: “Do you agree?”

The amalgamation consultation is coming down to residents' level. The Costuleni mayor's office — part of the largest commune proposed in the district, formed around Ungheni municipality, with around 42.300 residents — calls the village to the Cultural Center on Sunday, July 19, and has put into circulation the vision document of the new administrative unit. In parallel, the Cioropcani mayor's office, from the Sculeni cluster, has launched a bilingual online questionnaire on the draft decision and the development priorities. The council votes are scheduled by the end of the month.

FCM Ungheni beat Zimbru-2 4:2, the summer's first win over a direct group rival

FCM Ungheni beat FC Zimbru 2 Chișinău 4:2 in a friendly played at home on Friday. This is no lower-tier sparring match: Zimbru-2 play in the same Group A of Liga 1 as Ungheni and will face them three times this autumn. It is the summer's first win, with the best attacking output so far, but also two goals conceded from Zimbru's reserve side. The championship starts in two weeks, on 31 July.

145 players in Ungheni: the “Vara de Aur” chess festival, above all a children's one, is in full swing

The “Vara de Aur – 2026” chess festival brings 145 players together in six tournaments in Ungheni, between 16 and 19 July, and is organised by Ungheni City Hall. Nearly 6 in 10 participants are children. Only one tournament carries an international FIDE rating, and the only player with a classical title is an international master; no grandmaster is taking part. The Palace of Culture called the competition “one of the most important,” but the festival does not appear in the national competition calendar for 2026.

173 children at Ungheni's „Delia” kindergarten receive equipment through EQIP — on a grant, not a loan

The „Delia” nursery-kindergarten in the municipality of Ungheni is one of the 200 preschool institutions selected nationally for equipment through the „Improving the Quality of Education” project (EQIP) — position 68 on the Ministry of Education's list and one of 9 kindergartens in Ungheni raion. The institution's 173 children represent 4,1% of the children enrolled in early education in the raion. The equipment comes from a non-repayable World Bank grant, not from a loan — unlike the equipping of schools in the same project, among them the „Ion Creangă” Lyceum in Ungheni, which comes from a loan. In parallel, the municipality's strategy shows that at „Delia” the roof needs major repair, the building is not thermally insulated and access ramps are missing.

Ungheni City Hall calls itself „just a partner” in the downtown garden — but it puts up half the budget

The green space between Înfrățirii Square and the Episcopal Cathedral, covering 0,8 hectares, is being turned into an „urban garden” through a cross-border project funded by the European Union. The total budget is 303.802,50 euros, and Ungheni City Hall states on its page that it is „just a partner”. Programme documents show, however, that the municipality holds the largest individual budget in the project — 152.261 euros, or 50,1% — more than the organisation leading the project. Work begins about five months before the completion deadline.

A leak on a water main 500 millimetres in diameter at 8 Vasile Lupu Street was announced on Thursday for a seven-hour intervention, between 09:00 and 16:00.

The list of affected consumers on the second day also includes Ungheni District Hospital, which did not appear on the first one. In 2024, the operator reported 270 unplanned interruptions, 268 of which were resolved within the regulatory deadline.

«Were not confirmed»: Ungheni's transport operator finds no double charge and will not say how it checked

Three days after several passengers complained, in the comments under the notice about paying by card on the bus, about multiple charges, SRL «Servicii Comunale Ungheni» announces that it «checked every case reported» and that nothing was confirmed, putting some of the complaints down to «fake profiles». The statement does not say how many cases were checked or by what method, and the questions Triunghi.md sent on 14 July remain unanswered. Under the notice, a woman from Ungheni keeps asking where the journeys on the travel card have gone.
