Finnish Coast Guard says jamming of satellite positioning in Gulf of Finland has caused vessels to stray from their routes.

The jamming has continued at an increasing rate since April , and the Coast Guard has had to warn vessels not to run aground.

The Coast Guard said it believes Russia is jamming the signals to protect its oil ports from Ukrainian air strikes or drones.
