Study: Russia has reportedly jammed GPS signals from space dozens of times since 2019, affecting Europe and other regions. The drone from Constanța, cited as an example.

A new study conducted by researchers from the University of Texas and Stanford University indicates that a network of Russian satellites has disrupted GPS signals in Europe, Greenland, and Canada dozens of times from 2019 to the present, in a manner previously considered impossible, directly from space.

Scientists have identified 75 episodes of interference and claim that the source is a constellation of Russian satellites located in Molniya-type orbits.

Experts warn that such a capability could affect not only air and maritime navigation but also mobile communications, financial systems, logistics, and other critical infrastructures. The discovery is considered a possible escalation of electronic warfare, as until now GPS jamming was mainly associated with ground or aerial systems.

The article also mentions the drone incident that occurred in Romania, in the Constanța area, with some analyses suggesting that GPS interferences may contribute to the diversion of drone paths.
