On May 10, the 7,000 TEU container ship MSC Antonia ran aground near the Eliza Shoals south of Jeddah Port in the Red Sea. Emerging analysis suggests the vessel may have been affected by deliberate GNSS interference, renewing attention to the operational impact of spoofing in congested maritime corridors.
