Russia targets UK military satellites on weekly basis

The UK Ministry of Defense (MoD) has revealed that Russia is targeting British military satellites on a weekly basis. According to the MoD, Moscow is attempting to gather intelligence from these spacecraft. The report states that Russia is employing a range of techniques, including jamming and spoofing, to interfere with the UK's satellite operations. This activity is seen as an escalation of Russia's efforts to disrupt and undermine the UK's military capabilities. The MoD has expressed concern over these actions, which it views as a threat to the UK's national security. The ministry has vowed to take appropriate measures to protect its satellite systems and the information they provide. The revelations come amid heightened tensions between the UK and Russia, particularly in the wake of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The targeting of UK military satellites is seen as a concerning development in the broader geopolitical tensions between the two countries.
