There are quite a few of these turboprops in western Europe. Is it true that they will have to go soon, due to noise restrictions or other requirements?

some of An26, especially east-european registred (not RA, UR), are stage 3 certified with some penalties on performance. usually stage 3 on an26 assuming that they do not use APU power on take-off (on an26 APU is adding takeoff performance), plus some tricks with flap settings. so you may expect to see them around for next several years.
