An aircraft carrying a European defense minister was subjected to an electronic attack. According to reporting by Sözcü, the incident has reverberated widely across European public opinion and has particularly revived concerns among NATO member states about the threat of electronic warfare.
The report does not specify which country's minister was targeted or who carried out the attack. However, incidents of GPS jamming and electronic interference in Baltic and Northern European airspace are known to have increased noticeably in recent times.
The episode is significant for once again exposing how vulnerable both civil and military air traffic remain to cyber and electronic threats. Given Turkey's status as a NATO ally, the development is a security matter Ankara will need to monitor closely.
