GPS signals are interrupted in Tel Aviv and central areas
On April 4, 2024, the global positioning system service (GPS) was interrupted in Tel Aviv and many places in central Israel. Some Israeli people said that they could not use positioning and navigation services, which attracted widespread attention. Local residents said in an interview that the navigation service had been interrupted and even the direction of travel could not be determined. Some navigation software even showed that the user's location was in Beirut, which was obviously due to interference with GPS signals.
The Israeli military took interference measures
Israel Defense Forces spokesman Hagari confirmed that the Israeli army began to interfere with GPS signals in some areas that day. Hagari explained that this move was to defend against possible attacks from guided weapons such as missiles and drones from Iran. Concerned about possible retaliatory attacks by Iran, the Israeli military decided to take this precautionary measure to protect national security.
Enhance the alertness of combat troops
In addition to jamming GPS signals, the Israeli military has also increased the alertness of combat troops in some areas. Hagari said that this move is to respond to possible attacks and ensure that the army can respond quickly in emergencies. By increasing the alertness, Israel hopes to effectively curb any potential threats and ensure the security of the homeland.
Application and development of mobile phone signal jammers
In the current complex international situation, the application of technologies such as GPS signal jammers and mobile phone jammers is particularly important. Mobile phone jammers not only play a key role in military defense, but are also widely used in areas such as ensuring public safety and preventing information leakage. For Israel, using these technical means for preventive defense is an important measure to ensure national security and public safety.
