# GPS interference over the Baltic Sea region has risen sharply since 2023. Sweden’s Transport Agency points the finger at Russia. The number of incidents in Swedish airspace has risen from 55 in 2023 to 733 this year. The interference includes both false positioning and jamming or disruption of signals. The agency says this is serious and is a security risk for civil aviation. In early June, Sweden, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland, raised the issue with the Council of the International Civil Aviation Organisation, of which Russia is a member state.
