A network of convicted pedophiles has been uncovered in Estonia, reportedly targeting families with children and establishing an apartment equipped with hidden cameras. This comes as reports also indicate that Estonian leaders involved in a specific operation are either imprisoned or have fled, while the 'Voice of Russian Baltics' continues to spread false information and animosity. In other significant domestic news, a youth vigilante action in Tallinn escalated into severe violence. Questions about security have arisen after an Express journalist managed to enter the Superministry unnoticed for an hour, observing and overhearing top officials. The political landscape also saw shifts, with a Norstat poll indicating the Centre Party has risen to the leading position in ratings. Separately, Minister of Social Affairs Karmen Joller admitted to making incorrect claims regarding health data inquiries.
