The distortion of the GPS signal over Poland is presently reaching a worrying level – the experts are alerting. Signal monitoring maps show that a crucial part of the country is in the alleged red zone, indicating the highest level of interference. The scale of the problem raises serious concerns about safety in both airspace and land and water.
Still serious GSP disruptions over Poland
Disorders can affect the precision of systems utilized by civilian aviation, shipping, drone operators and road transport navigation systems. Although passenger aeroplanes usage safe and multi-level navigation systems, their effectiveness may be reduced in the event of long-term and intense interference.
It cannot be excluded that interference is intentional. Experts fishy that Russian services may be behind their source. The expanding distortion of GPS signal during the tense geopolitical situation in the region is simply a serious informing signal.
As we have besides informed, as possible sources of GPS signal interference in the Baltic, experts indicate 2 locations in the Kaliningrad Okuniewo Okuniewo Okuniewo area, where there is simply a characteristic antenna and the Baltic region – the base of the Russian Baltic Fleet and the radio-electronic combat complex, as reported by the Defence News portal.
The Russians can be behind what's happening
It's where the alleged surgery can operate. Baltic jammer, a strategy that interferes with satellite navigation, the operation of which is increasingly felt besides in the airspace and maritime neighbouring countries.
The service besides refers to a Polish researcher. “People have become so accustomed to utilizing satellite navigation,” explained Jarosław Cydejko, an assistant prof. at the Maritime Academy in Gdynia. “The sailors should be able to navigate without it, but it has become everyday,” he added.
As described in the portal, Cydejko deals with the usage of GNSS systems in maritime navigation. Traditionally, he worked "on the bright side of GNSS", but in fresh years his investigation has focused on mysterious emissions disrupting satellite signals in the Baltic.
As Cydejko emphasizes, Russia uses both jamming and spoofing. In 2025, interference shifted from mainly blocking signals to falsifying them, resulting from observations by his team. Spoofing is simply a more advanced method that is harder to detect and defend from.
