On April 29, 2024, Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna publicly declared that Russia is deliberately jamming GPS signals over Estonian airspace as a hybrid attack. The interference disrupts air traffic safety and breaches international agreements. Tsahkna emphasized that Russia’s actions endanger lives, affect not only Estonia but also the wider region, and cause international airlines difficulty in landing due to GPS disruptions. He plans to raise the issue with the EU and NATO and has discussed it with foreign ministers from Latvia, Lithuania, Finland, and Sweden. Despite calls for more evidence by some Estonian politicians, experts including the CEO of Estonian Air Navigation Services have confirmed the GPS jamming is from Russia. The Ministry of Defense also acknowledges Russia’s disregard for international civil aviation and radio rules. In response, Finnair suspended flights between Helsinki and Tartu for one month. This deliberate GPS interference exemplifies Russia's hybrid warfare tactics targeting the Baltic region’s civil infrastructure and airspace control.
