To the north is the Black Sea, and the Russia-Ukraine war. To the east is Armenia and Azerbaijan (as well as Iran). To the south is the middle east. Also Cyprus with the frozen conflict, there.

In addition to Armenia/Azerbaijan, Turkey has had a significant internal conflict with the PKK (Kurds) in the East/South East for... a very long time.

Also that whole region is just patchy with flight data - it makes it difficult to really see the true shape of jamming.

Turkey has been jamming GPS for years. I can't find a good explanation.

Red dots are in the north of Turkey. I don't think that Iran reaches there.
