Gabriel Mironiuc, an 11-year-old from Ungheni, wins a prize at the international chess tournament in Bohumín

Gabriel Mironiuc, an 11-year-old pupil at the “Alexandr Pușkin” Lyceum in Ungheni, was the best-placed player from the Republic of Moldova in his section at the “Open Bohumín” international chess festival, held in July in the Czech Republic. The section — a classical FIDE-rated tournament — had 26 participants. Ungheni City Hall announced a bronze medal for him. He trains at the Ungheni Sports School — a town with a chess tradition that hosted, in 2021, a simultaneous exhibition with former world champion Anatoly Karpov.

Third rabies outbreak in Ungheni district in two weeks: restrictions in Costuleni

A case of rabies has been confirmed in the village of Costuleni, Ungheni district — the third outbreak in the district after Rezina and Măgurele, in less than two weeks. Decision No. 1/E of 11 August, the first of the newly established crisis-management commission, approved a plan of 14 anti-epizootic measures: a census of animals within five days, a halt to the movement of animals in the village for 30 days, emergency vaccination and stepped-up hunting of foxes and jackals. The restrictions lift 30 days after the last case. Rabies vaccination of dogs and cats remains compulsory across the district, and any bite means a trip to the doctor the same day — the prophylaxis is free.

Lake Delia water is class V for the third summer running — the municipal beach stays open

After the fish die-off in early August, Ungheni City Hall requested a water sample from Lake Delia. The result, released by the Public Health Centre on August 11: water unfit for bathing — class V (the lowest) by chemical parameters. It is the third year in a row with class V results (2024, 2025, 2026), and the area has no sanitary authorization and is not on the monitoring calendar. The municipal beach stays open, with lifeguards. What this means for anyone who swims there — and where you can swim safely.

The Ungheni station, promised to the City Hall: an announcement without an act, money or deadline

On August 11, in Ungheni, Vladimir Bolea, the Minister of Infrastructure and Regional Development, announced that the bus and railway station will be transferred to the City Hall and turned into a multimodal hub, and the mayor, Vitalie Vrabie, promised swift investments. What that means, concretely: the public registers contain no decision — neither of the Municipal Council nor of the Government — on the transfer; the ministry's official press release from the same day does not even mention the station; and the contested routes from „Slavena” continue to depart from the same parking lot. Why a sentence spoken on the ground changes, for now, nothing on substance.

What separates illegal border crossing from illegal residence — and why two foreigners are in custody at Ungheni

On August 7, the court ordered public custody and a five-year entry ban for two citizens of Bangladesh, detained by the Border Police during an attempted illegal border crossing in the Ungheni district area, as part of efforts to counter a network allegedly involving Moldovan citizens as well. It is the second case of this kind reported at Ungheni's border in six weeks. We explain what differs, in law, between illegal border crossing — a crime — and breaching the residence regime, a mere administrative offence, and what comes next for the two.

The Slavena bus station in Ungheni: what the ANTA Order and the Municipal Council's decisions show

The Slavena bus station at Decebal 19/B in Ungheni has been registered with ANTA since September 2025, the agency confirms at the request of Triunghi.md. The applicable regime is notification, not authorization; the revocation of the Municipal Council's decision does not constitute grounds for removal from the register. The City Hall, which requested the removal, issued positive endorsements in 2026 for routes from the same bus station. The Council's urban-planning objections — commercial zone, no zonal plan, safety — fall outside ANTA's competence.

Delia, the lake with an open beach and untested water: dead fish in early August

In early August, a fish die-off occurred in Ungheni's Lake Delia. On the shore of the same lake, the municipal beach has been open since 21 June, with lifeguards — even though the Public Health Centre says the area has no sanitary permit, that in 2026 not a single water sample was taken and that swimming ought to be banned. What the documents say, what the institutions say, and where you can still swim.
