Between August and March, 46,000 flights reportedly logged satellite navigation (satnav) issues over the Baltic region. The planes appear to be suffering from GPS jamming and spoofing, which uses fake signals to trick pilots into believing the aircraft is in a different location than where they actually are. The European Aviation Safety Agency in January warned that authorities had seen a 'sharp rise' in jamming and spoofing 'attacks', but did not say who was behind them. But industry experts are now alleging that Putin's forces are behind the attacks.

She said: 'It bums me out for every woman and every person, that for no reason people just like to attack. A smart interesting woman that has her own life, for some reason, is incredibly threatening to some people'.
