Following the Soviet occupation, the newspaper was replaced by Noorte Hääl (published 1940–1941 and 1944–1990) in 1940. The last regular issue was printed on 26 July 1940. During the German occupation of Estonia in World War II, a revival of the old newspaper was attempted, but only a single issue was able to appear on 29 August 1941.Olaf Esna, [http://www.parnupostimees.ee/?id=90032 Okupatsiooni ajal Pärnus ilmunud lehed], Pärnu Postimees, 5 March 2009
