Red military personnel were seen on the road in Cizma from Saatse, at the border between Estonia and Russia, which prompted the Estonian authorities to temporarily close the area.

On Friday evening, a group of armed Russian soldiers was observed on the road in Cizma near Saatse, a border area between Estonia and Russia. The Estonian Border Police reacted by temporarily closing the road due to unusual activity on the Russian side. Although Russian authorities stated that it was a routine operation, the presence of soldiers in the middle of the road raised concerns. The Estonian Minister of the Interior confirmed that there is no imminent threat, but emphasized the need to finalize detour routes to avoid similar incidents in the future.
