Jamming now occurring at lower altitudes GNSS interference originating from Russia is becoming more serious and is now affecting aircraft at lower altitudes than previously recorded. This week, disruptions on the Norwegian side of the border...

To quantify the LOS impact, planes being jammed down to 1800 feet instead of 4000 feet would mean a jammer 47 km closer than before or 132 m higher. Or placed in a location with less terrain masking. Or a combination of all these.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:

Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.

And recognized as such by the US Government.

Prince Harry:

Over the past year, I've had the honor and privilege of visiting Ukraine twice. Each time I left deeply moved by the courage, dignity and unbreakable spirit of the Ukrainian people.

For four years, Ukraine has stood firm. You've shown the world what true resilience looks like.

We now host a page called "Lost and Found".

It shows the foreign vessels which Iran still hasn't released, and in kind, it also shows the latest sightings and locations of Iranian navy vessels.

We have made them public and there's also API/CSV access.

Unsure about the wording here, how should this be read?

1. All existing registrations suspended when outside Cameroon waters?

2. New registrations suspended?

Schattenflotte: Jedes dritte Schiff könnte gestoppt werden Jedes dritte Schiff der Schattenflotte ist ohne korrekte Flagge unterwegs.

Mehr als ein Drittel aller Schattenflotten-Tanker sind ohne korrekte Nationalflagge unterwegs.

Eine internationale Recherche, u.a. von NDR/WDR/SZ, hat 1.400 Tanker der globalen Schattenflotte untersucht. Mehr als 500 führten keine korrekte Nationalflagge.
