Italian media on September 29 initially focused on the Moldavian elections, where pro-EU parties won over 50% of the votes. Concurrently, the Flotilla's journey to Gaza and Defense Minister Crosetto's warnings about potential interceptions received significant attention. Mid-morning, the focus shifted to the regional elections in Valle d'Aosta, with initial results showing the Union Valdotaine leading.
Early afternoon, regional elections in Marche took center stage, with exit polls indicating a tight race for Francesco Acquaroli. Later in the afternoon, Acquaroli's re-election for the center-right was confirmed, despite lower voter turnout. By evening, the primary focus transitioned to Donald Trump's new peace plan for Gaza, with Netanyahu accepting it and Hamas rejecting foreign 'tutelage'. The plan proposes releasing hostages within 72 hours and a transitional body led by Trump and Blair.
