The Estonian Police and Border Guard Board banned public gatherings and marches, as well as the display of symbols associated with Russia in Tallinn and several counties where a significant Russian-speaking population resides, ahead of Victory Day on May 9, the ERR broadcaster reported on Wednesday.

The ban is set to be in effect from May 8-10 and reportedly applies to the counties of Harju, Laane-Viru, and Ida-Viru.

Organizing prohibited public events during this period could result in fines or up to one year of imprisonment, with those assisting in such activities to be detained. Additionally, using symbols related to Russia or Victory Day could lead to fines of up to 2,400 euros ($2,700) or arrest, ERR reported.
