Summary:

On June 11, 2025, the Port of Klaipėda in Lithuania experienced GNSS interference affecting maritime navigation. The disruptions are attributed to Russian military activities intended to shield its Kaliningrad exclave from potential airstrikes. While not directly targeting Lithuania, the interference extended into Lithuanian territory, impacting vessels operating in the region. Lithuanian officials noted that the protective measures implemented by Russia caused these spillover effects.
