FROM THREATS TO ATTACKS! Ship captured, Borders redrawn! Estonia BRACES AND DIGS IN!

Tensions between Estonia and Russia have entered a dangerous new phase, as hybrid aggression intensifies across land, sea, and air. The recent detention of an Estonian-linked oil tanker by Russian forces marks the latest in a series of provocations testing Estonia’s sovereignty and NATO’s resolve. In response, Estonia is transforming its defense posture, building bunkers, revamping strategy, and preparing for the worst. With GPS jamming, border interference, and maritime disruptions on the rise, the Baltic states are drawing hard lines. What’s emerging is a coordinated regional defense shift—one shaped by lessons from Ukraine and a determination to deter Russian escalation by forceful preparedness.
