Ursula von der Leyen's flight en route to Bulgaria was targeted with navigation interference, which the EU says was possibly deliberately done by Russia.

Von der Leyen's plane landed in Plovdiv airport and she is continuing her planned tour of EU countries bordering Russia and Belarus, Podesta said. The EU chief arrived in Bulgaria on Sunday and met with Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov to discuss European security and defense issues. The Financial Times reported that the plane had to remain in the air for around an hour longer than planned due to the GPS malfunction.
