Problems of navigation near the hot spots
The global emergency of the GPS signal spoofing is affecting civilian infrastructure. Aviation and maritime regulators consider it a "crisis-level" security threat.
The disruptions are primarily caused by active geopolitical conflicts in Eastern Europe and the Middle East - the problem is caused by the EW shenanigans, used to confuse the enemy missiles and drones.
Interference from GNSS has increased to nearly 1 million recorded incidents of maritime interference per quarter by mid-2026.
Hundreds of commercial flights encounter changes in the signaling system over important air corridors.
Thankfully the aircraft crews were trained to disable their GPS systems upon entering warzones. They fully revert to legacy ground-based navigation systems, such as inertial reference systems and ground-based radio beacons.
There is also a risk of being shot down after being mistaken for a hostile jet plane. There were such cases in the past.
