UK military jamming other nations' satellites, BBC told
Original: UK military jamming other nations' satellites to defend itself, BBC told
The UK military is jamming satellites belonging to other nations as part of its own defensive operations, according to information given to the BBC. The disclosure offers a rare look into electronic warfare practices in orbit, where signals used by hostile forces are disrupted to protect British interests. It is likely to renew debate about rules of engagement and escalation risks in space.
Why now: A rare official admission that the UK conducts offensive-adjacent electronic warfare against foreign satellites in space is newsworthy and raises questions about space conflict norms.
