Estonia's annual Victory Day (Võidupüha) parade took place in Kuressaare, Saaremaa on Wednesday with almost 750 members of the Estonian Defense League, allied NATO members and partners participating.
June 4 marks the anniversary of the consecration of the original blue, black and white flag which was later adopted as the Estonian flag. To mark the occasion, the public is invited to a flag-raising ceremony at the Governor's Garden at Toompea Castle early Saturday morning, as well as to visit and climb the iconic Pikk Hermann tower itself that day.
This week, the Ministry of Social Affairs is teaming up with the World Health Organization to provide psychological first aid (PFA) training to people in Estonia working directly with war refugees. Regardless of one's job title, if someone is working with refugees, it's important to be trained in PFA, says clinical and public mental health specialist Liina Melanie Sarapik.
