In a surprising move, North Korea caused problems for ships and planes in South Korea by jamming GPS signals. The jamming took place on Friday and Saturday, affecting many vessels and civilian aircraft.
This happened just one week after North Korea tested a powerful new missile, claiming it was their most advanced yet. This missile test followed accusations that North Korean soldiers had been sent to help Russia in its war against Ukraine.
In response, South Korea launched its own missile into the sea, showing they were ready to react to any threats from North Korea. South Korea’s military warned ships and planes in the Yellow Sea to be careful of GPS disruptions.
The South Korean government has strongly asked North Korea to stop the jamming and warned that they will take action if these disruptions continue.
