Russia’s new goal? Disinformation push hits Estonia’s border metropolis Narva | DW News

Estonia’s security services are sounding the alarm over a surge in pro‑Russian online activity targeting the border city of Narva. Anonymous channels calling themselves the "Narva People’s Republic" are spreading separatist narratives — but investigators say it’s a provocation, not a real movement.

Estonia is an EU country, yet in this small city more than 90% of residents speak Russian daily.

So how strong is Russia’s influence in Narva today — and how are locals responding to the campaign? DW’s Riga Bureau Chief Juri Rescheto unpacks the current situation and what could be next for this key Estonian border city.
