Several NATO members accuse Moscow of deliberately jamming positioning signals

Several NATO members accuse Moscow of deliberately jamming positioning signals

GPS is no longer reliable around the Baltic Sea and northern Norway. Interference in the Global Positioning System (GPS), which has affected all NATO members bordering Russia for two years, has worsened in recent months. Alternative systems to GPS have had to be activated on tens of thousands of flights and the main Finnish airline has suspended one of its routes due to the problem, which is also disrupting maritime navigation. Several of the affected countries accuse Moscow of intentionally jamming signals with its electronic warfare systems.

Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, GPS interference has been recurring in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. These types of disruptions are common in and around conflict zones. Even so, in the last half year, the airspace of the three Baltic countries — in addition to that of Finland, Sweden and Poland — has been much more affected than at the beginning of the war. What’s more, thousands of ships have been navigating the Baltic without GPS since December, when the Russian army’s electronic warfare began in the Kaliningrad enclave. And in remote northeastern Norway, near Russia’s Northern Fleet base — which has eight of the 11 Russian submarines capable of launching long-range nuclear missiles — outages are almost daily.

    I’m familiar with Linkerbaan. Pattern recognition is not an offense.

    EDIT:

    All from our dear friend - took me only a few minutes of searching. Not faulting you for not searching, that would be ridiculous to expect of someone who didn’t know the poster, but this isn’t just “SOMEONE ASKED A QUESTION ABOUT RUSSIA!” it’s “Someone with a long history of playing ‘bothsides’ and putting forth bullshit assertions and feigning ignorance is doing it on one of the subjects they constantly do it on”.

    Israel has already killed more civilians in 45 days than Putin during his entirely Ukraine war.

    The west is commiting actual genocide right now. Don’t mis use the word for Putin.

    Ukraine is doing plenty of terrorism against their occupier. Your double standards are showing.

    Reminder that israel had already killed more civilians than Putin did since the start of the Ukraine war. Biden is literally worse than Putin.

    You fuck off genocide apologist. When it came to Ukraine you were all calling for the Russians to assasinate Putin.

    Now that it’s about non white people you’re literally saying you’re gonna vote for the genocide guy. Fucking racist hypocrites.

    The war crimes Russia committed in Bucha pale in comparison to the complete genocide israel is committing right now.

    America is already talking about dropping support for Ukraine.

    Ukraine was just a proxy to exhaust Russian resources with.

    Now that the entire country is in ruin America is going to pull support and leave them for dead like they’ve done with all their other proxies.

    Even the Russians had far greater precision than this when attacking Ukraine.

    You’re in for a treat when you start reading about the Azov brigade. They’ve got literal Nazi’s.

    It’s so sad that all you have is whataboutism isn’t it? And the worst part is that Genocide Joe isn’t even the lesser of evils anymore. He is now the worse evil.

    Genocide Joe is the person able to stop this. Instead he removes all war crime restrictions on the weapons and protects israel with all his power. He is actively committing mass genocide.

    A reminder that Genocide Joe has killed more than twice as many civilians than Putin in Ukraine already.

    Not to mention the amount of children murdered by this barbaric Zio Nazi

    Not to forget Ukraine is slowly getting ditched too so the “world powers” are losing that one as well.

    Israel is like 10000% more genocidal than Russia.

    But anyone not supporting Ukraine with weapons against Russia obviously has to go because that’s very “unfreedom” of them.

    The Kurds welcome Ukraine in joining the long list of groups abandoned and left in ruins by the US after being promised support to fight their enemy as long as needed.

    Biden needs to focus on committing Genocide now. He has no time for Ukrainians beating an invasion. Surely Zeloonsky understands, he unconditionally supports israel’s genocide himself.
