TL;DR Summary

Russia is suspected of jamming signals on UK Defence Secretary Grant Shapps' plane, affecting GPS and communications for almost 30 minutes as he flew back from Poland. The incident occurred near Kaliningrad, a Russian exclave neighboring Poland, and is seen as an act of "electronic warfare." Shapps, who was visiting British troops participating in Nato war games, was assured the attack did not compromise the aircraft's safety. This comes amid Shapps' call for increased defense spending to counter threats from Russia and China.
