The government urges people to check their SMS language preferences

On Wednesday, May 14 at 15:00, the Estonian Defence Forces will activate the national public warning system EE-ALARM for the first time as part of exercise „Siil“. A key part of this system is location-based SMS alerts, which, since April, are sent in the recipient's preferred language—Estonian, English, or Russian. The government recommends that people review their language preferences with their mobile operator and update them if necessary.
