Since early July 2024, Finland has been experiencing widespread GPS denial across most of its population, effectively creating a GPS blackout.

Beginning in early July 2024, Finland has been under a persistent GPS denial condition affecting the majority of its population, as evidenced by GPS signal interference maps and reports. This GPS denial, described as a 'blanket' over Finland, severely degrades GPS availability, posing risks to civilian and critical infrastructure reliant on satellite navigation. The interference predominantly affects areas where most Finns live, suggesting a targeted or strategically significant disruption. The issue has not received significant media coverage despite its potential impact. This GPS denial appears to be a hybrid warfare tactic aimed at undermining Finland's navigational and communication infrastructure. The event was highlighted by open-source intelligence analyst @auonsson via Twitter and includes visual evidence comparing GPS signal availability before and after the onset of denial.
