Ukrinform, the state-owned Ukrainian news agency, reported on a post by an anonymous research account under the pseudonym “Markus Jonsson,” claiming that aircraft have suffered from navigation errors over the southern part of the Baltic Sea since Dec. 15 – and that the source of the jamming appears to be Russia’s Kaliningrad region.
The claims made by the “Markus Jonsson” account on the Mastodon and X social networks have not been independently verified, however, the accounts, which date back to December and January 2022, include near-daily posts with signal and sensor analyses.
