North Korea has been accused of conducting GPS jamming attacks in the Yellow Sea, impacting South Korean ships and civilian aircraft. These actions come amidst heightened tensions on the Korean peninsula, with North Korea increasingly involved in the Ukraine conflict. Seoul has responded with a show of force and is considering direct military aid to Ukraine.
The UK Ministry of Defence announced the construction of a new facility designed to protect military equipment from GPS jamming, a growing threat. This state-of-the-art facility will be one of the largest in Europe and will test equipment like drones, helicopters, and fighter jets in a specialized hangar to ensure their resilience against electromagnetic interference.
Numerous flights in the United Kingdom have been impacted by electronic attacks suspected to originate from Russia that are disrupting satnav systems and posing safety concerns. Thousands of flights have experienced satnav problems, prompting investigations into the source of the disruptions. Russia’s involvement in electronic warfare and the geopolitical implications of these attacks are being scrutinized.
