Reports concerning Iran are seldom reliable in the west, but based on the pre-emptive strike on Yemen by the Trump regime, and Trump’s latest rhetoric versus Iran, perhaps there is some substance to western reports that Iran has caused intermittent GPS issues in the Strait of Hormuz.
See: Multiple Vessels Report GPS Disruption in Strait of Hormuz
Posted on the tenth of March, other sources have publicly posted about disruptions to GPS systems in the Strait of Hormuz as well, blaming Iran for the disruptions.
Civilian GPS and US military GPS systems are different. Military GPS can use multiple frequencies (multiplexed?) that make military GPS more difficult to jam, but precise details on methods are of course highly classified.
In the US/Kiev war with Russia, Russia has evidently discovered methods and means to scramble or jam US military GPS signals. That is a worry the Pentagon has embraced for a long time, and is now scrambling to update and upgrade US military GPS systems used on the Ukraine battlefield.
But Donald “Peace President” Trump bombarding Yemen and designating the Houthi’s as terrorists was not solely based on the Houthi’s relationship with Iran, or GPS issues, or Ansarullah’s stated support for Gaza, where the Houthis promised to re-start attacks on Israeli shipping in the Red Sea.
No, PM Netanyahu informed Trump several days ago that Israel will once again resume its attacks on Gaza, as it has done today. In anticipation of Netanyahu’s Gaza plan, Trump launched major pre-emptive bombing attacks on Yemen, aware that the Houthi’s would likely retaliate with missile strikes on Israel, subsequent to the resumption of Israeli aggression today in Gaza.
Russia’s leadership seems reluctant to engage in a proxy war versus today’s US/EU version of the Axis powers via the Houthi’s – or via Iran. That’s no doubt due to Russia’s moral consideration for the people of Iran and Yemen, and how they could be decimated by the evil that lurks in Washington. [1] And perhaps Russia hopes to engage in peacetime commerce, trade, and cooperation with the west going forward? In Russia, that forlorn hope seems to spring eternal.
Typical of such tensions, reports about an Iranian spy ship being sunk by the US – namely the Zagros – are evidently untrue and misinformation, perhaps based on media nonsense perpetrated by NSA Waltz Or… for that matter, MBS.
On that note, despite Trump’s assurances that World war 3 has been averted, it’s good to view any statement that comes out of Washington as either a lie, or some elaborate form of theater.
[1] The west has no such moral compunction and consideration, when it comes to destroying any people, or any nation.

Moral compunction!
Oh to live without the weight of a conscience! Like leaping boundless across a lower gravity world it might seem amazing, until you spend too long living in a different world and you find you can’t go home. Physics.
Well, I thought my article on James Jesus ‘the mole’ was better, which did not appear. Will be interesting to see if anything new on Angleton appears in the newly released material regarding the JFK assassination. I can tell you that the CIA did it, and believe it or not, actually regretted that particular crime; even if it has been behind many similar crimes ever since.
