Estonia is closely following the development of the situation in Russia and exchanging information with allies.

I can assure that there is no direct threat to our country.

Border security has been strengthened. I also urge our people not to travel to any part of Russia.

A fantastic few days in Helsinki! ✨

[Lena Holmgren @Elena_Holmgren]

We continue to discuss elections in Europe at #ElMaRB conference ‘Elections after 2022: The short and long-term impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine’. Sanna Salo from @FIIA_fi talks about the effect of Russian invasion on the recent elections in Sweden

[Estonian MFA 🇪🇪 | 🌻 #StandWithUkraine @MFAestonia]

Latest news from Poland is most concerning. We are consulting closely with Poland and other Allies. Estonia is ready to defend every inch of NATO territory. We’re in full solidarity with our close ally Poland 🇵🇱

Two museums, a pedestrian bridge, a philharmonic, an office building, a children's playground – this is not a complete list of “important military targets” that Russia has struck with missiles in Kyiv this morning.

[E-Voting.CC @evotingcc]

31 years 🇪🇪💙 Happy Restoration of Independence Day!

(Not sure I could fit my immense gratitude for living and studying here in a single tweet, but here's some photos of Estonia being completely gorgeous ☺️)

Yesterday, Estonia was subject to the most extensive cyber attacks it has faced since 2007. Attempted DDoS attacks targeted both public institutions and the private sector. (1/4) @e_estonia

[Logan Carmichael @_TheRealLoganC]

Pro-government media has blamed the cyberattacks on Russia, while the former PM has blamed 'ineptitude of the government,' questioning the concentration of e-services, and institutional security practices. Watch this space. (2/2)

An interesting situation unfolding in Albania, where digital transformation has been undertaken in recent years. Digitalised govt services hit by a 'synchronized' cyberattack from 'outside of Albania,' all govt website and services now shut down (1/2)

Breaking News: Shinzo Abe, Japan’s longest-serving prime minister, was assassinated during a public speech. He was 67. A suspect was arrested. https://t.co/m82R4CByyF

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

I am shocked and saddened to hear about the shooting of Abe Shinzo.

Such violence is also an attack against the very idea of democracy.

Our thoughts are with you, your loved ones and all the people of #Japan.

“This shopping centre had the biggest toy store in the city. How could this be a strategic object?” Anger and disbelief in the Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk, as rescuers continue to search for survivors of the Russian attack. ⁦My report from the scene https://t.co/Ni8T0vfBJg

[Logan Carmichael @_TheRealLoganC]

That's a wrap on a very busy conference month... 5 conferences (in various capacities) in the last 5 weeks, and 2 paper presentations 😅 Time for a bit of rest!
