Russia is running GPS-jamming machines in St Petersburg and Kaliningrad, affecting aviation and sometimes shipping around Baltic Sea.
Some of my most appreciated work has been localizing these machines in time, space and volume.
Here's a rundown of previous geo-work, reversed chronological order.

The officers escort, intimidate, obfuscate documents and are generally uncooperative according to the Danish pilots who have an unique insight into these ships.

Danish pilots keep reporting sightings of little green men aboard civilian vessels coming from Russia. Unfortunately the authorities don’t want to discuss these sightings. But a veteran pilot with decades of experience is willing to talk.

AIS-spoof-station WHISKEY 365 in Finland is offline.
It operated with a noteworthy 100% uptime for over a year. Oct 30 it started publishing anomalous data and caused a mass spoof event Nov 2.
Now offline since a few hours.
Guess: they were raided by FI authorities.

The AIS-receiver station responsible for the mass spoof event Nov 2 in Baltic Sea show anomalous data patterns during 8 more days but returned to normalcy Nov 9.
From a baseline of ~30 ships/h, for 8 days it reported 56-113 ships/h.
Speculation: Mass spoof might have been a mistake by attacker.

Nov 2 Russian subsea sabotage/intel vessel YANTAR was allegedly operating just off the Netherland coast, among a good chunk of European critical infrastructure.
The ship is specialized in subsea missions and ran by highly secretive GUGI, Main Directorate of Deep-Sea Research.

In an area from approximately Bornholm to mid Gulf of Finland hundreds (thousands?) of new AIS-messages suddenly appeared. A large part of them military ships.

Unexpectedly that 🇨🇳 system was down for a full 19h from the evening of September 22nd, which is why the airport had to be closed.

The DGPS-stations of Skagen and Hammer Odde are unreliable, states 2 NAVTEX from today.
DGPS is supplementary to GPS and is used to correct.
As should be obvious from map these are strategic locations.
Previous instances have sometimes coincided with more ship jamming.
