- Ahead of Iran's first-ever direct attack on Israel, Israeli intelligence jammed GPS navigation system signals within their territory to confuse Tehran's missile targeting teams.
- Almost all of the more than 300 drones and ballistic and cruise missiles Iran launched at Israel failed to hit their targets.
- Around 99 per cent of the projectiles being downed as Israel, the US, the United Kingdom (UK) and Jordan intercepted them before they got to Israel.
- Generally, the GPS jamming or ‘spoofing’ are used in warfare to disrupt communications and GPS receptions in combat zones or during military operations.
- They can disrupt communications, causing signal losses or disturbances, but also disrupt enemies’ navigation systems and precision-guided weapons.
- The U.S. and other Western countries have conducted large-scale spoofing exercises before, but not in times of war.
