Background
This page is European Russia west of the Urals, the part with dense civil ADS-B, not Siberia. Reporting ties interference here to the war and to defensive jamming near large cities (Foreign Policy, June 2026). For the reporting on interference in Russia, and who it is attributed to, see: Eastern Europe.
Only hexagons whose centre lies inside European Russia's borders are counted, so hexagons in neighbouring countries and out at sea are left out. The map is framed on 44 to 70 and 28 to 60.
