Demonstrations against Russian aggression in Ukraine continued for the third day in front of the Russian Embassy in Tallinn on Wednesday. This time, a few dozen people gathered in front of the embassy building on Pikk tänav to draw attention to Russian soldiers' rapes of women and children in Ukraine.
The message of the protest organizers was this: "Russian soldiers are raping and murdering innocent women and children in Ukraine. People who support this war also support war crimes, jarring murders to which they are accomplices. That is our message to the supporters of the Putin regime (in Russia, Estonia and everywhere)."

Millie Bobby Brown Says 'Gross' Sexualization She's Been Dealing With Got Worse After She Turned 18
The Stranger Things star addressed the long-standing issue during a recent appearance on The Guilty Feminist. She told hosts Deborah Frances-White and Susan Wokoma she’s endured inappropriate behavior throughout her career, but she’s noticed a “gross” difference since becoming a legal adult earlier this year.
“I deal with the same things any 18-year-old is dealing with, navigating being an adult and having relationships and friendships, and it’s all of those things,” she said during the March 31 sit-down. “Being liked and trying to fit in, it’s all a lot, and you’re trying to find yourself while doing that. The only difference is that obviously, I’m doing that in the public eye.”
Brown received her big break at the age of 12, when she was casted as Eleven on the hit Netflix show Stranger Things. The British-born actress turned 18 back in February, just several months before the series’ season 4 premiere.

Eric Adams, the mayor of New York City, tested positive for the coronavirus on Sunday, his 100th day in office, the mayor’s office announced.
Mr. Adams has been focused on reopening the city after cases rose during the Omicron surge over the winter. Cases recently started to rise again, fueled by the BA.2 variant.
The mayor, 61, woke up with a raspy voice on Sunday and tested negative on a rapid test before testing positive on a P.C.R. test, said Fabien Levy, a spokesman for the mayor. Mr. Adams had no other symptoms and is isolating and canceling the rest of his events for the week, Mr. Levy said.
Mr. Adams, who has not tested positive for the virus before, had visited Albany, the state capital, on Saturday for a meeting with lawmakers. He has also been holding a series of interviews to promote his first 100 days in office.
