Bronze Night
In April 2007 the Estonian government decided to move the Soviet war memorial known as the Bronze Soldier from Tõnismägi in central Tallinn to the military cemetery. On the night of 26–27 April protests at the site turned into riots and looting in the city centre; one young man was killed and many were injured and arrested. At the same time Estonia was hit by massive cyber attacks. The statue was relocated to the Tallinn Military Cemetery, where it stands today.

2007. aasta aprillis otsustas Eesti valitsus viia Pronkssõdurina tuntud Nõukogude sõjamonument Tallinna kesklinnast Tõnismäelt kaitseväe kalmistule. 26.–27. aprilli ööl muutusid protestid monumendi juures kesklinnas rahutusteks ja rüüstamiseks; üks noormees hukkus ning paljud said vigastada või vahistati. Samal ajal tabasid Eestit ulatuslikud küberrünnakud. Kuju viidi üle Tallinna kaitseväe kalmistule, kus see seisab tänini.
