  "description": "Researchers have been tracking Russian GPS jamming activities affecting the Baltic region and have pinpointed the source to electronic warfare (EW) sites located across the Gdańsk Bay, in Kaliningrad. The jamming has targeted GPS signals used by military forces in the Baltic States and Poland, impacting precise navigation and command and control capabilities. Analysts used signal monitoring and mapping to confirm the familiar EW sites that Russia has used historically for electronic attacks. The research provides insights into the scale and technical scope of Russian electronic warfare in the Baltic Sea area and underscores ongoing challenges for NATO and regional security forces. This GPS jamming campaign is part of Russia's broader hybrid warfare strategy to disrupt adversary systems and maintain tactical advantages in the region.",

  "notes": "This event highlights Russia's continued use of electronic warfare to impair NATO's operational capabilities in the Baltic region. The pinpointing of jamming origins allows for better situational awareness and potential countermeasures. Future monitoring should focus on changes in jamming patterns and related hybrid threat activities around Kaliningrad and neighboring NATO countries.",
