All navigation had been halted in the East of the Mediterranean, all navigational instruments refuse to work normally. All equipment can not determine its location, there are problems with communication, – reports the Greek Ellinotourkika.
Civil aviation officials from Cyprus and Turkey warned about unprecedentedly serious problems: they issued a special notice to the captains of civil aviation and sea vessels to be cautious and bypass this area.
Given the situation in Syria, where the United States was preparing to strike the Syrian territory, the outlet suggested that the Russian Ministry of Defense transferred there the EW system “Lever-AV”, “Krasukha” or Borisoglebsk-2 that can be installed on helicopters. They should protect the Tomahawk missiles, which are already aimed at Syria.
The West believes that Russia took seriously the possible impact of the United States on the region, so it took urgent measures to ensure the security of the region with an additional shield.
That’s why all equipment within a radius of hundreds of miles (150 km) is experiencing problems with communication and navigation. Some have noticed that EW systems even disconnect communication with satellites.
