Description

Significant surge in GPS jamming activity and PNT (Positioning, Navigation, Timing) disruption recorded over southern Sweden and the Baltic Sea region on April 29-30, 2024.

The data is supported by multiple graphics and visualizations correlating aviation and maritime implications. The origin of disruption appears to be linked to Russian operations from Kaliningrad enclave.
