Disruption to navigation signals has been picked up around Trinidad and Tobago, where a US warship had been stationed amid escalating tensions in the region.”


“It appears to be centred around Trinidad and Tobago and emerged around the time the USS Gravely guided missile destroyer arrived there in late October.”


”Jamming can overwhelm an aircraft's GPS navigation systems, preventing them from working properly, leaving pilots to rely on other ways of finding out where they are.”

It appears to be centred around Trinidad and Tobago and emerged around the time the USS Gravely guided missile destroyer arrived there in late October. It is not usual for disruption to be seen in that part of the world.


Jamming was detected up until and including November 3, but the latest data for Tuesday, November 4, appears to show that the jamming stopped.
