Despite Von Der Leyen Story Unraveling, Russia Accused Of Widespread GPS Jamming Over Baltic Sea
Despite Von Der Leyen Story Unraveling, Russia Accused Of Widespread GPS Jamming Over Baltic Sea
Swedish authorities on Thursday have alleged that Russia is behind a sharp rise in GPS interference over the Baltic Sea which has increasingly impacted aviation, creating a potentially dangerous situation for civilian travel in the region.
The Swedish Transport Agency announced a surge incidents involving disruptions to global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), such as GPS. It issued a figure of just 55 cases in 2023 to 733 so far this year.
"We’ve conducted long-term analyses and gathered extensive data. Our conclusion is that the interference originates from Russian territory," the agency’s head of aviation, Andreas Holmgren, was cited in AFP as saying.
cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inl…
"This poses a serious threat to civil aviation, especially considering the scale, duration, and nature of the interference," Holmgren added.
The Swedish agencies pointed to jamming and spoofing techniques - the latter which involves sending false location data. Media reports say the incidents were initially limited to the Scandinavian country's eastern airspace over international waters, but now the interference has become broader.
These new major allegations come after Russia has vehemently denied it engaged in GPS jamming of a plane carrying European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen as it prepared to land in euronews.com/my-europe/2025/09…
:
Bulgarian officials have denied claims they suspected Moscow of jamming the GPS of a plane carrying European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, days after the Commission cited Bulgarian authorities as suggesting the incident was "due to blatant interference from Russia."
The country’s Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov told parliament on Thursday that von der Leyen's plane had not experienced "prolonged interference or jamming."
In a statement made later the same day, Zhelyazkov said that even though no jamming had been detected by "ground instruments," it didn't exclude the possibility of "onboard devices" detecting jamming.
EuroNews and others have noted this is a major U-turn on the claims, making the whole episode highly suspect and dubious. The plane landed safely, but EU officials quickly blamed Russia for the alleged interference, and yet days later the whole story seems to be unravelling fast.
Did Von der Leyen and her team just completely fabricate it? The Bulgarian government as of Thursday is denying the entire basis of the claims:
"There is no need to investigate the situation, because these disturbances are neither hybrid nor cyber threats."
cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inl…
According to the euronews.com/my-europe/2025/09…
, "In an interview with Bulgarian channel bTV, Deputy Prime Minister and Transport Minister Grozdan Karadjov denied that the government had submitted any information on the matter to the European Commission, contradicting the Commission's assertion that Bulgarian authorities suspected the disruption was the result of the Kremlin's hybrid warfare."
Don't expect the mainstream media to be quick to offer corrections or walk-backs...
A couple days ago, the FT hyped a "Russian active measures" hoax claiming Russia jammed the GPS on von der Layen's plane. The story has already unraveled, but no correction from the FT. It all feels so Trump-1st termy. t.co/LOzc1YnlTq

That was one of the revolutions of when the car first became affordable to more people - it gave some the first place they had privacy from family (nuclear or extended).
Since housing has skyrocketed in price all over the world, a lot of people can't afford private space.
And, sadly, it long ago became vogueish for libraries to be louder spaces so it's also hard to find quiet spaces....

The image shows a vinyl record player on a white shelf, with a black vinyl record spinning on it. The record player is a Rega Planar 3 model, as indicated by the logo on the front. Next to the record player is an album cover for "Notorious Tourist from the East" by Toshiko Akiyoshi, featuring a woman in a white shirt with a dark vest. The album cover is black with yellow text. Below the record player, there are several board games, including "Monopoly" and "Clue." The setting appears to be a cozy room with a carpeted floor and a white chair in the background.

I do wish they wouldn't choose the towpath to settle down for preening & naps, I worry some cyclist charging by too fast on an e-bike will hit one (most are careful but there are some zipping along at very high speed with zero concern for pedestrians, other bikes or wildlife).

Excellent essay! I've been complaining about SF's inability to look *forward* and its nostalgia problem for... well... probably as long as I've been writing SF, which is about 15 years now. This is a really good succinct explanation of why.

I agree with most of it but think the colonial/cis/white guy critique of the older sci-fi is overdone (broadly, not in this article).
When it's descriptive it's accurate - it was almost all stuff written by straight white guys for straight white guys.
When it's normative - why did they only write for straight white guys? That's nonsense to me. It's like asking "why didn't they become someone else who is an anachronism and write for my modern sensibilities"?

La muralla, construida con bloques de piedra de diferentes tamaños y colores, incluyendo tonos marrones, grises y beige, se eleva majestuosamente contra un cielo azul despejado. En la parte superior de la muralla, se pueden ver los almenas, que eran utilizadas para la defensa. La base de la muralla está construida con piedras más pequeñas y se encuentra un pequeño baluarte de piedra a la derecha. El suelo está pavimentado con piedras de diferentes tamaños, creando un patrón irregular. Al fondo, se puede ver una colina cubierta de vegetación, lo que sugiere que la fortaleza está situada en un entorno natural. La imagen transmite una sensación de historia y resistencia, con la muralla como testigo silencioso de los siglos pasados.
