A Royal Air Force aircraft transporting UK Defense Secretary John Healey was forced to switch to an alternative navigation system last week after losing GPS signal during a three-hour flight, the BBC reports.<\/p>\n
The signal was reportedly jammed while Healey was returning from Estonia, where he had visited British troops stationed near the Russian border.<\/p>\n
According to British media reports, Russia is believed to be behind the incident.<\/p>\n
Russian authorities have not yet commented on the matter.<\/p>\n
An anonymous source from the UK Ministry of Defense stated: “This was reckless interference by Russia, but the Royal Air Force is well prepared to deal with this kind of activity.”<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
