On February 9, 2025, a suspected Russian GPS jamming incident occurred during the flight of Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, in Bulgaria. This incident, which put Putin's hybrid warfare tactics on Europe's radar, was taken very seriously by NATO, with plans to retaliate against the jamming. However, Bulgaria dismissed the incident as not being a hybrid or cyber threat and saw no need for investigation.
