Russia's muffle GPS signal in Poland: what does it mean (photo)

The Russian army has installed a complex of electronic struggle "Borisoglebsk-2" in the Kaliningrad region, which has already stuck the GPS signal in the region earlier. The Russian army again stifles the GPS signal in part of Poland and Sweden. This became known from the GPSJAM data, which can see satellite navigation signal. On March 1, the GPSJAM service recorded GPS signal obstacles over most of Poland, over the Baltic Sea and partially over Germany with Sweden.

The probable cause may be a complex of electronic struggle "Borisoglebsk-2", which the Russians have already been tested in the Kaliningrad region. It is not excluded that it is also a signal failure through NATO's training that can take place in Poland. The work of the EWC may influence that a regular user, such as Google Maps, may have problems with location. He can be physically in Warsaw, but the MAP service will show that he is in Krakow or somewhere else.

Earlier, the ISW wrote that the Russian Federation was leading a "hybrid war" against Europe. The efforts of the Russian Federation to suppress the GPS signal aim to interrupt NATO training. We will remind, on January 19 in ISW ​​it was written that the Russian Federation launched a hybrid war in Poland and the Baltic region through blocking the GPS signal.
