Possible scenario
Contained Diplomatic Response
45% Chance
Moldova treats the injury as a serious but contained escalation, avoiding direct military retaliation while requesting more surveillance and air-defense support from the EU, NATO partners, Romania, and Ukraine. Russia denies intentional targeting, and the incident remains framed as spillover from attacks on Ukraine rather than a direct attack on Moldova.
